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 19:1-14. Verses 12 and 13 KJV, what secret faults and presumptuous sins in me may be obvious to others though unseen by myself? What would it look to start overcoming those with God’s help?
Proverbs 18:1-24. Verse 24, outside my family, what friends do I treasure most? How can I bring God more fully into those friendships?
Romans 11:1-12. Verses 3-5, as many Americans fall away from the faith, what identifies Christ’s remnant? How can I be part of it? What is my church’s role?
Matthew 17:22-27. Related, in a godless public square, how much accommodation should Christians make to the overreaching state? Where can I turn for workable answers?
