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 52:1-9. Verse 3, what’s a current example of the forces that love evil more than good and lying more than honesty? How does God go about counteracting that? My role?
Deuteronomy 16:1-22. Three feasts that God commands Israel to keep. What if anything is on my sacred calendar of the year except Christmas and Easter? Does it matter?
Hebrews 7:1-10. Verse 3, how do the offices of the Son of God as eternal king and priest make a claim on the way I think and act today in 2022?
Matthew 6:19-24. Verse 24, am I in any way trying to serve two masters, Jesus and X? What’s to be done?
