Day 693 - James 4.13 - 5 & Psalm 136

 Michelle

This reading starts by talking about boasting, that we should not be boastful, and that we should live each day like it's our last.  Stop focusing on what comes next but live in this day as it's been given.  It goes on to warn rich people not to hoard.  Then it speaks of patience.  Being patient for what God is bringing us is very difficult, especially through tough situations.  Praying in faith comes at the end of this reading and it's pretty powerful.  God wants us to pray, and we do but are we praying with faith or just praying to pray.

This psalm is really about God's love enduring forever.  It goes through different things he has done, but that is the main theme.

This seemed pretty straightforward and you seem to have to summarized it well. Nothing really stood out for me beyond those things.

His steadfast love endures forever.
