All that we are and will be is because of His great love for us.
Daily devotionals from Scripture to nourish your faith, deepen your prayer life, and grow in God's grace.


Every day, Scripture speaks to ordinary life. Gleanings From the Word is a daily devotional drawn from the Bible and written for people who live in the middle of things — work, family, struggle, and ordinary Monday mornings.
Kevin Corbin has been writing these devotionals since January 1, 2001. The aim is simple: stay close to the text, say what is there, and trust that God meets us where we live.
The Lord loves ordinary people. He must, because He made so many of us.

Are you like Solomon, celebrating all you have accomplished or all that you have? Or are you like David, having achieved great things, but marveling at the wonder of God and recognizing how small his own accomplishments were standing next to what God has done?
