Studying this morning's four readings from the St. James Daily Devotional Guide (click to subscribe), I examined myself with these questions. Where is your self-examination leading today?
Psalms 89:1-52. Verses 46 and 49, when have I wondered where God was, why he seemed absent? What did I learn? Lesson for today?
Jeremiah 2:1-37. Verse 13 KJV, broken cisterns. What vessels of false value does the worldly mind keep offering me? What is God’s alternative? Action point for today?
Romans 1:1-17. Verse 16, if I’m truly unashamed of the gospel of Christ, how will I conduct myself today in word and deed?
Matthew 9:27-38. Verses 37 and 38, what must I do in the coming hours, to be able to look back tonight and know that today I labored in the Lord’s harvest?
