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 37:1-40. Verses 3-5, is there something that has been making it hard for me to trust God lately? What’s to be done?
II Chronicles 22:1-12. The wickedness of Ahab and his godless clan. Verse 11, a sister’s daring rescue of the boy king. What risk am I prepared to take in standing against the enemies of God?
Revelation 2:18-3:6. Jesus commands his churches to be watchful, steadfast, and strong. What will that look like in my everyday routine?
Luke 22:39-46. Jesus in Gethsemane, praying in agony. What form does spiritual sleepiness take in me? How can I resist it today and stay at my post for Jesus?
