Oops, I left out two verses

This morning I studied chapter four of James.  I finally felt ready to close the book and write it all  down  from memory.  I thought I did pretty well, until I looked back at the chapter.  I  left out two verses.

James 4:9 and 10

Be miserable and mourn and weep, let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy into gloom.  Humble your self before the Lord and He will lift you up.

Maybe,  I left them out because I do not like to think about negative things.  I tend to want to read and memorize  positive verses.  Maybe it is just human nature to pick and choose what we read and learn.   But here we have  have the results of sin and the solution .
