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 29:1-12. Verse 10, Lord be my helper. As God grants me this petition in all that I do, all day today, what are some forms that his help takes—varying from one activity to the next? What is required of me in return?
Jeremiah 28:1-17. Jeremiah shuts down a false prophet who claimed God didn’t insist on a yoke of submission after all. When did I try to take a short cut and evade God’s demands? What did I learn?
I Timothy 1:1-11. Verse 2, Paul loves Timothy as his own son in the faith of Jesus Christ. With what person outside my immediate family have I enjoyed a parent-child relationship for spiritual growth?
Matthew 15:21-28. What qualities did this woman express in approaching Jesus which positioned her to receive healing? What situation am I facing right now, where those very qualities can apply?
