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 23:1-6. What would God’s green pastures and still waters, his rod of comfort and table of feasting, specifically look like in my struggles right now, January 2026?
Ecclesiastes 9:1-18. Do death and forgetfulness have the last word? Or are the lion’s courage, the hero’s valor, the patriot’s sacrifice worth something after all? Have I irrevocably decided what to live by?
Hebrews 3:1-11. Verse 8, what is the hardness of heart that the writer is warning about, which I must resist today as Moses and Jesus resisted in their day?
Matthew 4:1-11. Verse 4, what holy word of life and love, proceeding out of the mouth of God, shall I take as my nourishment today?
