For the one who wavers(hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at seathat is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind.7 For truly, let not such a person imagine that he willreceive anything [he asks for] from the Lord,8 [For being as he is] a man of two minds (hesitating,dubious, irresolute), [he is] unstable and unreliable anduncertain about everything [he thinks, feels, decides].God Promises Success God’s Commitment To Your Success, Pt. 1
