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 78:1-40. Verses 2 and 8, how does the stubborn and rebellious conduct of the Israelites, 30 centuries ago, furnish a parable for me to learn from and live by, here and now?
Proverbs 28:1-28. Verse 13, when have I had to choose between covering up my sins or confessing them? Who was hurt as a result? How did God show up?
Matthew 22:23-33. How does the hope of the resurrection change everything? What specific difference can it make for me in the tasks set before me today?
