Treasures in James

I love the writing style of James.  The Holy Spirit used him in a special manner to convey to us important truths.  He uses many metaphors to shed light on his subject.  For instance, we see him using at least 4 images in the first chapter.

• The sea (v.6)
• The flower (v. 11)
• The mirror (v.23)
• The bridle (v.26)

It's interesting to note that the first two, God is in control of them.  And the last two, are items made by man.  I think if we look closely in the text, we'll see something special in this regard.
