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 27:1-14. Verse 5, what would I like to have God hide me from today? While that is going on, what’s given me and what’s expected of me?
II Samuel 3:1-39. Intrigue, mistrust, and vengeance among David’s men. As politics grinds on in this fallen world, do I tend to expect too much or too little of that process?
Acts 10:34-48. What opportunity may I soon have to build bridges in an unlikely direction for the gospel?
Mark 6:30-44. Verse 34, if my relationship with Jesus is that of sheep and shepherd, what does that tell me about how I am to conduct myself today?
