Psalms 17:1-15. Verse 15, if I could see God’s face, what qualities would it express? Not seeing him with my physical eyes, how and where shall I look for his image today?
Proverbs 16:1-33. Verse 18, when have I learned by experience that pride goes before a fall? Present application?
Romans 10:1-13. Verse 9, how to be saved. Who needs to hear this from me one day soon? What are my do’s and don’t for the talk I want to have with them?
Matthew 16:21-28. Verse 24, what exactly is the cross Jesus wants me to bear in following him today?
