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 118:1-29. Verse 22, what attitudes and actions should follow today as a result of making Jesus my life’s cornerstone? How can I adhere to that, despite the world’s rejection of him?
Zechariah 9:1-17. Verse 9, this week how shall I celebrate—with deeds not words—the coming of King Jesus, sovereign yet lowly?
John 12:12-36. Verse 24, short of actually dying, what self-sacrifice can I make for Jesus at this season of my life? What is the fruit he expects of me?
Matthew 21:1-17. Verse 13, what part can I play in helping make our church a place where prayer is lifted up and sin is cast out?
