David's Daily Devotion for June 26

June 26, 2023 - Good Morning! It's Monday, June 26.

Today's devotion is all about 3:16. There are 49 "3:16" verses in the Bible. Bu there are 66 books in the Bible, so why aren't there 66? Well, some books, like Psalms, have a 3rd chapter with less than 16 verses, and other books, like Jude, don't have a 3rd chapter at all. 

Here are a few notable "3:16s" . . .

Over the last three years there's been one word that has most often crossed our minds and crossed our lips - the word "pandemic". But during the first half of the 20th century, there was another pandemic that affected millions of lives - polio. On June 23, 1995, a man died that, more than any other person, brought that pandemic to a close. The man's name was Jonas Salk.

I'm old school when it comes to writing. This daily devotion ends up on my computer, but it begins on a yellow pad, written by a pen. And not just any pen. It has to be the "Pilot Precise Rolling Ball V5 Extra Fine"! I'm not that particular about most things. If my coffee is hot, that's good enough for me. And if a car gets me where I need to go, I don't care that much about what it looks like. But when it comes to pens - there's only one choice. There is no substitute.

Today is a federal holiday that celebrates freedom. Growing up in Texas, I've always known about "Juneteenth." On this day in 1865 in Galveston, a general named Granger read the Emancipation Declaration. President Lincoln had declared freedom for the slaves two and a half years earlier, but news traveled slowly back then.

David's Daily Devotion for June 13

June 13, 2023 - Good Morning! It's Tuesday, June 13.

Each Sunday evening our church family meets for a time of fellowship, praise and worship, testimony, prayer, and a Bible study from our interim pastor, Dr. Tim Watson. Last Sunday night, Bro. Tim's text was Matthew 13:1, a verse that I didn't remember hearing before. It says this - "And on that day, Jesus went and sat by the sea."
