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 65:1-13. Verse 11, autumn crowns the year. Heading into the final quarter of 2025, what shall I do to pick up the pace and give my very best for God and neighbor?
Judges 20:1-48. Against the odds, God helps Israel avenge the atrocities of the Benjamites. What important decision or undertaking do I face, which requires the Lord’s guidance and aid?
James 3:13-4:10. Verse 3, if some prayer of mine has gone unanswered, have I possibly been asking amiss?
Luke 7:18-35. Do I know someone who seems drawn to Jesus, yet holds back and won’t commit? What can I do to get them past their hesitation?
