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 14:1-7. How does the foolish atheism of the present age try to convince us there is no God? How can I counteract that today in thought and deed?
Genesis 5:1-32. Verses 21-24, Enoch achieves deathless life. While no such achievement is likely to be mine this year, what are some achievable markers by which others might see me as a person who walks with God?
Hebrews 11:4-7. As wickedness increases in our world and storm clouds gather, what qualities of Noah shall I ask God to endow upon me?
Matthew 3:1-12. Verses 10, 11, 12, Jesus to come with fire. How can I look to experience that in everyday life, here and now?
