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 94:1-23. Verses 16-18 KJV, what situation am I currently facing where the odds seem against me, and I need divine assistance in order to prevail, with the emergency appeal of “unless God”?
Exodus 2:1-25. Moses, man without a country. Verses 11-15, when have I tried to force an outcome in disregard of a better plan God might have? What did I learn? Present application?
Matthew 28:1-10. What steps shall I take to sustain the awe, joy, assurance, and zeal of resurrection morning, when Easter’s drama starts to recede day by day and ordinary life resumes?
Matthew 28:11-20. Verses 19 and 20, the Great Commission. Is Jesus more glad or sad when he takes stock of my evangelism efforts of late? Action point?
