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 9:1-20. Verse 1, praising God with my whole heart. Is any portion of my heart turned away to something or someone else today? How shall I correct that right now? What’s at stake?
Ezekiel 28:1-26. Verse 25, God promises to gather his scattered people and sanctify them. What does that specifically look like today for me, my family, my church, and my community?
I Peter 3:1-12. God’s intention for men and women to be heirs of grace together. Who is my role model in obeying this today?
John 7:37-53. Rivers of living water to be ours in following Jesus. Why do I need this today?
