Nothing is more helpful and practical in Christian
living--than the habit of getting a verse or phrase of Scripture into
the mind and heart in the morning. Its influence stays through the day, weaving
itself into all the day's thoughts and words and experiences.
Every verse in the Bible is meant to help us to
live--and a good devotional book opens up the precious teachings which
are folded up in its words.
A devotional book which takes a Scripture text, and so opens it
for us in the morning, that all day long it helps us to live, becoming a
true lamp to our feet, and a staff to lean upon when the way is
rough--is the very best devotional help we can possibly have. What we need in a
devotional book which will bless our lives, is the application of the
great teachings of Scripture to common, daily, practical life.
