Bible Wednesday 1/1: Grace and Truth

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 102:1-28. Verse 2, what issue, in particular, am I asking God today to resolve for me speedily?

Genesis 1:1-31. Verses 26-28, what birthright can I rightly claim today, as a result of being made in God’s image and given dominion over all his creatures?

Hebrews 11:1-3. What would it look like, in this new year, for me to walk by faith and not by sight more consistently than I’ve ever done before?

John 1:1-18. What would it look like today and each day of 2025 for Jesus to answer my prayers with an outpouring of his grace and his truth?
