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 119:129-176. Verse 141, what’s the evidence of how small I am? What’s the benefit of my being nonetheless invited to seek God, know him, and lean on him?
Joshua 15:1-63. Exactness of the land title God gave the tribe of Judah. What part of God’s provision for my life seems inexact and uncertain? Prayer point for today?
Acts 27:13-26. Facing shipwreck, Paul meets a protecting angel. If God should send me an angel today, what specific help would I ask for?
Luke 3:1-20. Verses 16 and 17, what is the fire that John says Jesus will bring into our world? What demand does it make upon me? How am I doing?
