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 147:1-20. Verse 4, God knows by name every star in the universe. Shall I not trust him with every detail of my life?
Isaiah 65:1-25. Verses 17-23, God’s plan for redemption and renewal of his chosen people and his holy city. What’s the specific application of this to my needs today?
Revelation 21:9-27. The new Jerusalem with gates of pearl, streets of gold, and the Lamb for its light. What attitudes and actions are required of me to be its resident and city, starting right now?
Matthew 25:14-30. How shall I go about investing wisely all the assets and resources Jesus has entrusted to me for the enrichment of his kingdom?
