I missed a few devotionals over the last few days.
James 1 contains the five lessons. The first two are:
1. Faith and Wisdom: “6 But when you ask God you must believe.” Forgive me when I ask for things and do not believe. I know it is a reflection of my weakness and beg forgiveness for forgetting Your greatness and power.
2. True Riches: Lord, let me have not business other than your business. Please bend my heart to desire only to be like You as all other ends are death. May I be consumed by Christ.
Lord I love You and I want to act like it.

Today I read Psalms 44-45 aloud and an excerpt from “The Imitation of Christ”.
“Join me to Thyself by an inseparable bond of love; for Thou alone canst satisfy the lover, and without the all other things are frivolous.” (Four things which Bring Much Peace, Book 3 Chapter 23)
Lord, may we all be consumed by Christ.
