Bible Tuesday 1/14: Our Intercessor

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 38:1-22. Verse 11, when have I felt lonely, deserted, abandoned? How did God show up? Present application?

Deuteronomy 14:1-29. Strict dietary laws given by God. What are some do’s and don’ts of “spiritual nutrition” that Jesus wants me to follow?

Hebrews 7:11-28. Verses 24-26, Jesus as our high priest and intercessor. What shall I ask the Son, as he talks with the Father today, to say about me and my concerns?

Matthew 5:13-20. Verse 16, heading into this day, what are some reminders to myself about how to let my light shine for the glory of God?
