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 119:1-48. Verses 20, 25, and 28, heaviness of soul. What is the hardest thing about this pandemic for me? What is God’s remedy?
Ezekiel 9:1-11. Verses 4-6, God‘s protective mark upon those who grieve at evildoing. Surveying this fallen world right now, what grieves me? Action point?
I Peter 2:1-12. Verses 9-12, if I and other Christians really live this way, how can we turn the Covid crisis into a kingdom opportunity?
John 20:19-29. Whom do I know that half-believes in Jesus yet holds back, doubting? With God’s help how can I bring that person toward saving faith?
