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 85:1-13. Verses 4 and 8 KJV, praying to turn. What false path am I on right now that I need God’s help to turn away from and turn toward him? First step?
Joel 1:1-20. Verse 14, seeking God with urgency. For me and for my church, is the Christian life more routine or more urgent? What’s at stake?
Ephesians 5:22-33. Verse 26, how can I go about constantly washing all my relationships with God’s word?
John 17:1-10. Verse 3, if life eternal with Jesus is for right now, not some future time, what would it look like for me to live that way all day today?
