Issue 1749 – Morning Blues – June 12, 2025
It took some time of quiet meditation before I began to move from “Oh Lord, not another day” to “Praise God, it’s a new day.”
Daily devotionals from Scripture to nourish your faith, deepen your prayer life, and grow in God's grace.


Daily devotionals, short stories and Bible studies are designed to encourage you and strengthen you in your walk with Jesus. Come on in, sit a spell and be encouraged.
To learn more about us and what we believe, check out the “About”page. We believe that the Bible is not simply some dusty, old, irrelevant book. It is the living, active, wholly inspired Word of God.
I write devotionals on a daily basis. Most of us are ordinary people, living ordinary lives.
That is an excellent place to meet God. The Lord loves ordinary people … He must because He made so many of us. My devotionals are drawn from ordinary life and I hope illustrate the truths of Scripture. Scripture trumps my writing in every way, yet many people find it helpful in their faith walk.
I hope you enjoy what you find here. Please feel free to subscribe. https://mailchi.mp/f27bbeb09c22/gleanings-1

It’s just a single blade of grass that’s going to seed. It’s such a common sight that we walk right by and never pay attention to it.

As we’ve aged and experienced our share of health and other issues, indeed, we can’t do everything we used to, and we are certainly slower. We might have more in common with the gnarled old tree than one in its prime. Yet, we are still called to serve, give, and love.
