Studying this morning's 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 75:1-10. Verses 6 and 7, in the next hundred days as America struggles with questions of political leadership, can I calmly and confidently trust God with all such decisions?
I Kings 12:1-33. As the Israelites split into two kingdoms, most worship two golden calves like Aaron’s idolatry of long ago. When have I stupidly repeated past mistakes, grieving the heart of God? Am I doing so even now?
Acts 22:12-21. Paul concludes his defense at the temple in Jerusalem. Who do I know that loves God, but half-blindly, unaware that Jesus is Lord—and to whom I can make Jesus known, as Ananias did for Paul?
Mark 12:13-17. In my concern for politics and my zeal for our troubled country, am I rendering too much to Caesar and too little to King Jesus?
