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 64:1-13. Verse 4, what spiritual attitudes and practices must I work on today, in order to dwell in God’s courts even amidst the grind of daily life?
Jeremiah 41:1-18. More woe befalls the Jews, as Ammonite assassins kill the governor and his loyalists—a chapter where God is unmentioned. How do I keep faith when God seems absent and silent?
II Timothy 3:1-17. Verse 12, if persecution is always part of the Christian life, what is to be made of the relatively untroubled life I lead? Time to take it up a notch for Jesus, leave it all on the playing field?
Matthew 18:15-22. What person or situation in my life has demanded forgiveness up to 70x7? How am I doing?
