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 75:1-10. Verses 6 and 7, amid the raging political storms, can I face today in quiet confidence that God is sovereign, supreme, wise, and just, placing all the players just where they belong for his glory?
Leviticus 13:1-59. God’s directives to help his people combat leprosy. With due respect for modern medicine, what was lost when God was walled off from public health issues, as with Covid since 2020?
Acts 4:23-31. Verse 31, when my church gathers to pray, what would it take to summon the Holy Spirit with the impact of a literal earthquake?
John 18:19-27. What can I do today and each day to put myself “in training” for the next occasion (probably unforeseen) when I’ll either confess Jesus Christ or deny him?
