Give ear to my words, O Lord – Psalm 5 KJV 2 Minute Devotional

A friend stopped by last night and was telling us how she had used a “blue” bottle to feed milk to baby kittens. It took us a while to figure out that she was saying “glue” bottle. Communication problems seem to happen in our house all the time. Sometimes the results can be quite humorous …

Spurgeon on “Keep me from Sinking” ~ 2 Minute Devotional

My prayers always seem to be most earnest when I’m in the midst of a difficulty, when I’m sinking, or when I’ve gone under. When Peter was distracted by the wind and waves in Matthew 14 he began to sink. At that point Peter cried out for Jesus to save him. I’m so thankful that …

Give Thanks! – Psalm 109 ESV 2 Minute Devotional

His Face Shine Upon You – Psalm 67 NASB 2 Minute Devotional
