David’s Daily Devotion for Feb. 9

February 9, 2022 - Good Morning! It's Wednesday, February 9.

As the calendar inches closer and closer to Valentine's Day, we continue our devotion series on the subject of love.

On Sunday night, February 9, 1964 - 78 million Americans (the most in history) tuned their TVs to the Ed Sullivan Show, and the world of popular music was changed forever. The guests that night were four young lads from Liverpool - the Beatles. Maybe some of you were watching. I missed it. My family, being devout Baptists, were, of course, at church!

David’s Daily Devotion for Feb. 5

February 5, 2022 - It’s Saturday, February 5.

In 1922, the New York Herald newspaper published an article titled “What the World Will Look Like in One Hundred Years.” They chose novelist W. L. George to write it. Never heard of him? Few have. And even fewer have read one of his novels. But you have to admit, the man knew a thing or two about predicting the future.

David’s Daily Devotion for Feb. 4

February 4, 2022 - Good Morning! It's Friday, February 4.

Our lives are filled with all kinds of prayers. There's the prayer we learn as children - "now I lay me down to sleep." And the prayer we learn as adults - "our Father, who art in heaven." There's nothing wrong with memorized prayers. They can be a comfort to us, a touchstone, just as memorized scriptures can be.

David’s Daily Devotion for Feb. 3

February 3, 2022 - Good Morning! It's Thursday, February 3.

Musician Buddy Holly was born in Lubbock, Texas in 1936. And on this day in 1959 he was riding in a small plane, along with singers Ritchie Valens and J. P. Richardson, on their way to a concert. The plane crashed into a lonely, frozen, Iowa cornfield. All were lost. Buddy Holly was just 22 years old. Perhaps no other popular musician has had such an impact in so short a time.

David’s Daily Devotion for Feb. 1

February 1, 2022 - Good Morning! It's Tuesday, February 1.

February 1st fell on a Saturday in 2003. That morning, at about 8:00, people in the Dallas area looked up in the sky... and they saw the space shuttle Columbia breaking apart. A few minutes later debris began to fall in East Texas. It fell in our streets, in our fields, all around us. It was a day that many of you will never forget.
