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 42:1-11. Verse 8, what’s difficult for me about the night hours? What shall I pray God to do about that?
II Samuel 10:1-19. Verse 10 KJV, play the men for our cities and our God. Are this expression and its opposite, “not man enough,” still acceptable to God though now politically incorrect? Is my church clear on this?
Acts 13:26-41. Verse 39, how will my thoughts and actions be different today if I’m constantly more responsive to the grace of Jesus than to the law of Moses?
Mark 8:1-10. What act of miraculous multiplication or provision do I need Jesus to perform for me today?
