Thursday's Devotion

Here is the devotion they are schedule to do on Thursday morning - our Wednesday night.


Kenya 2008: A guide for your time alone with God
The following devotionals were taken from The Message Remix: Solo.

Thursday July 24th – James 1:19- 27

READ: Meditate on this passage. Underline words or phrases that stick out to you. Circle repeated words.

THINK: Consider what roles specific body parts have in your spiritual formation. James says here that our lives as followers of Jesus can be shaped by how we choose to use (or refrain from using) our ears and our tongue. How have your ears and tongue been beneficial or damaging to your interactions with others recently? Be specific. When have you said one thing and done the other? Think about what James says about that.

PRAY: Confess those times when you have not listened and when you have spoken unnecessary and harmful words.

LIVE: In conversations today, be mindful of the percentage of time you are speaking compared to the time you are listening to others. Then ask yourself whether the percentage is healthy.
