Bible Monday 10/20: To Live is Christ

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 119:129-176. Verses 145-147, what is the difference between crying out to God and praying to him in my everyday way? What shall I cry to him about today?

Philippians 1:19-30. Verses 21-26, what could I accomplish for the kingdom today if I held my earthly life with as loose a hand as Paul does here?

Luke 18:1-8. Verse 8, if Jesus returns today, what do I want him to find me doing?
