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 86:1-17. Verse 7 KJV, what is the worst day of trouble I’ve ever had to live through? How did God show up? Application for today?
Job 35:1-16. Verse 14, trust God. It sounds simple and obvious, yet I do it so inconsistently. What shall I trust God with in my life today, humbly and unreservedly?
Ezra 2:62-70. Verse 69, repatriated Israelites gave to the temple building fund according to their ability. In kingdom work that matters to me right now, are there areas where my giving falls short of my ability?
Luke 10:38-42. Related question, what would my daily activities and priorities look like if I did a better job of putting Jesus first and foremost?
