David’s Daily Devotion for Aug. 29

August 29, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Friday, August 29.

Let me tell you about a remarkable method of communication and connection. You probably haven’t heard of it. It’s exceedingly rare. I’ll describe it for you.

First, take a sheet of paper and place it flat on a table or desk. Next, using a writing implement - pen, pencil, crayola, your choice - fill the sheet of paper with thoughts. Important thoughts, trivial thoughts, humorous thoughts, serious thoughts - again, your choice.

David’s Daily Devotion for August 27

August 27, 2025 - This morning we take a look at a trilogy of Bible chapters, three consecutive scripture passages that form a pattern - a pattern that we see repeated over and over in our lives.  This morning we look at Psalm 22, 23, and 24.  I would print these three psalms in their entirety, but I never write more in these daily devotions than you can read in two minutes, so I’ll just share three excerpts.

Do you know someone who is blind? Maybe a friend or a family member? Statistics tell us that over a million Americans have severe vision impairment. That’s a big number. But it pales in comparison to the number of blind people in the 1st Century, during the time of the New Testament. In the gospel of John, chapter 9, we read of an encounter between a blind man and Jesus.

David's Daily Devotion for August 18

August 18, 2025 - Good Morning! It’s Monday, August 18.

With my background as a church musician and worship leader, it’s not surprising that a significant percentage of these little thoughts, over the years, have been about gospel music. The stories behind the hymns. The stories behind the men and women who wrote them. One of the most prolific hymn writers in history, penning over 8000 songs, was named, appropriately enough, Gabriel.
