Bible Sunday 1/19: Celebrate

Studying this morning's 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 47:1-9. Today how can I shout the praise of God, not in words but in thought and action?

Hebrews 6:1-12. Verse 6, what kind of behavior makes me a participant in crucifying the Son of God all over again? Am I at risk of such behavior today, or is this just a warning to other people?

Matthew 9:14-17. What exactly is this new wine that Jesus gives me? What does he mean by telling me to put it in new bottles only, not old ones?
