David's Daily Devotion for January 5

January 5, 2024 - Good Morning! It's Friday, January 5.

I've been thinking about beginnings and endings.

On January 5,1954, a young truck driver walked into Sun Studio in Memphis and made a recording. Elvis Presley went on to sell 500 million records, but that was the first one.

On January 5,1970, four lads from Liverpool walked into Abbey Road Studio in London and made a recording. The Beatles would sell 600 million records, but that was the last one.

Beginnings and endings.

Last year, over ten million people died of cancer. Perhaps one of those was someone you knew, maybe someone you loved. But in the first week of this new year, over two million babies have been born. Perhaps one of those babies will grow up to cure cancer. Or maybe one will end up selling 700 million records.

Beginnings and endings.

Revelation 22:13 - I am the Alpha and the Omega, says the Lord, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.

Meet you back here on Monday,
Bro. David
