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 16:1-11. In just a minute or so, what would I tell a young student who asked what it means that God shows us the path of life?
II Samuel 11:1-27. David seduces a lovely woman, arranges her husband’s death, and covers it all up. What is the worst sin I ever committed? How wide and deep was the harm? What on earth was I thinking?
Acts 13:42-52. Paul and Barnabas, rejected by the Jews at Antioch, take the gospel to the Gentiles instead. How committed am I to sharing Jesus? Should I be a won’t-take-no-for-an-answer evangelist?
Mark 6:53-56. What would it look like for me to touch the edge of Jesus’ robe as I start this day? Or better yet, try to keep hold of it all day?
