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 4 KJV, what attitudes and actions are actually involved in lifting up my soul to God today?
Jeremiah 2:1-37. Verse 13, in what places can I access God’s fountain of living waters today? In these times, what are some examples of broken cisterns that hold no water, no truth?
Hebrews 13:1-17. Verse 2, how can I do better at the Christian practice of hospitality, putting myself in closer touch with angels, God’s messengers?
Matthew 12:38-42. What is given me in the Cross of Christ that I couldn’t get from the preaching of Jonah or the wisdom of Solomon? Who needs to hear about this from me today?
