40 Days Lent Devotional - Day 23

Meditation:

Take a moment to intentionally reflect and focus on God, God’s Word, and God’s works.

Engage with the Scripture:

Interact with the Scripture not merely for the purpose of knowledge, but rather for transformation and discipleship to Jesus.

1. What was the original intent? (Context/Content)
2. What does it mean? (Interpretation)
3. How should it shape and form me? (Application)

James 5:7–8 (NIV) 7 Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains. 8 You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord’s coming is near.

Be patient with God, yourself, and others.
