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 107:1-43. Verses 23 through 30, from God‘s protection in a storm at sea, what can I learn about his purposes for our country right now?.
I Kings 19:1-21. Verses 14-18, what discouragement am I currently facing, that this story speaks to?
Acts 25:13–26:11. Verses 19 and 8, Paul's trial forces Roman and Jewish authorities to to wonder who Jesus is and whether he rose from the dead. What can my church do to gain a wider hearing for these questions today?
Mark 14:32–42. Verse 36, on what issue might I be resisting God‘s will today? Verse 38, in what way might I be spiritually sleepy?
