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. Verses 4-6, what would it specifically look like for God to fulfill these promises in my life today? How can I put myself in position to receive that grace from him?
I Kings 19:1-21. When have I felt defeated, discouraged, deserted—and a bit self-pitying—as Elijah does here? How did God show up?
II Peter 1:10-21. If I revered and loved the triune God as passionately as did Peter, Jesus’ former denier, what could I accomplish for the gospel and the kingdom? What’s holding me back?
Matthew 7:1-13. What opportunity can I find today to practice the Golden Rule? What log do I need to get out of my own eye before busying myself with the speck in my neighbor’s eye?
