GPS: Grow, Pray, Study

Monday, May 4 Romans 3:21-31

  • In God’s eyes all people regardless of religious profession or creed have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (R. 3:23). How can you become aware of your sinful conduct and therefore, more aware of the gift that God offers us?
  • God not only wants to save us from our sins but God has destined us to spend eternity in his glorious presence. Read v. 26 again, “He justifies the one who has faith in Jesus.” How can you allow this truth permeate your life more fully?

Tuesday, May 5 Romans 4:1-25

  • Embracing the reality that we are sinful can be difficult. Reread verses 4:7-8 and meditate on the fact that you are blessed when you acknowledge your sins.
  • Abraham is considered the founder of faith. Paul helps the reader to understand that faith is the way that we are reckoned righteous. Understanding the role of faith in the spiritual journey can be difficult. Romans 4:20 reminds us that faith is a process. How can you help your faith to grow strong? Do you ever pray for your faith to be strengthened?
