Bible Tuesday 5/21: Abide in Christ

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 50:1-23. Verse 5, what are the terms of God’s covenant with his people? What does he expect of me? What do I expect of him? Action point for today?

Ezekiel 44:1-31. Strict obligations of the priesthood. What daily precautions should I take, lest I become too casual with God?

Acts 2:40-47. Verse 42, four key elements of church growth. Which of these is strongest at my church? Which is most in need of strengthening?

John 15:1-8. Jesus says over and over we must abide in him as branches abide in the vine. If I do this all day today, what will it look like in thought and action?
