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 27:1-14. Verse 11, what do I want to have God teach me today? How teachable am I?
II Samuel 16:1-23. Cursed and stoned by one of Saul’s men, David turns the other cheek. When have I done likewise? Is there another occasion awaiting me now—with God’s help?
Acts 15:13-21. The apostles at Jerusalem conclude they must answer one simple question—do I want to be on God’s side or against him? How do I find myself facing the same question here and now?
Mark 8:1-10. Again as he did two chapters ago, Jesus feeds thousands with just a few baskets of food. Yet the disciples are as surprised as last time. Why weren’t they more teachable? How teachable am I?
