David's Daily Devotion for May 8

May 8, 2026 - Good Morning! It’s Friday, May 8.

With this devotion, we complete our week-long series on mothers, leading to Mother’s Day. How many Bible moms can you name? Five? Fifty? Your list might include such notable women of scripture as Eve, Sarah, Hannah, Elizabeth, and Naomi. However long your list might be, I’m certain it would include one particular woman, a mother named Mary.

David's Daily Devotion for May 7

May 7, 2026 - Good Morning! It’s Thursday, May 7.

What can you tell me about the following women - Anna Pertl, Nancy Hanks, Pauline Koch, and Morrow Coffey? Well, unless you cheated and googled it, I’m pretty sure you didn’t recognize any of them. But they gave us the world’s greatest composer, greatest president, greatest scientist, and greatest evangelist. These women are the mothers of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Abraham Lincoln, Albert Einstein, and Billy Graham!

David's Daily Devotion for May 6

May 6, 2026 - Good Morning! It’s Wednesday, May 6.

Mother’s Day is coming! And during this week leading to that BIG Sunday, we’re focusing our little daily thoughts on “all things mom”. Today, a story behind a song. You can tell a lot about somebody by their favorite song. Do you know your mother’s favorite?

David’s Daily Devotion for May 5

May 5, 2026 - Good Morning! It’s Tuesday, May 5.

Mother’s Day is this Sunday and so all this week we’re focusing on moms. This morning we remember a Bible character that the Bible says very little about. She’s only mentioned a few times, and during part of her story she isn’t even referred to by name. But we know her name. It was Jochebed. And she was the mother of Moses.

David's Daily Devotion for May 1

May 1, 2026 - Good Morning! It’s Friday, May 1. Something lighter today . . .

I love words. I find them endlessly fascinating. And sometimes very confusing. For instance, how is it possible that flammable and inflammable mean the same thing? Here’s some more synonyms that sound like they should actually be opposites.

valuable / invaluable
bone / debone
regardless / irregardless
press / depress
and my personal favorite... caregiver / caretaker

And then there’s those words that seem like they should mean the same thing - but don’t.

David's Daily Devotion for April 30

April 30, 2026 - Good Morning! It’s Thursday, April 30.

You probably realize that every day of the year has dozens and dozens of special “national” observances. Today, for instance, is National Golf Day, National Adopt a Pet Day, National Oatmeal Cookie Day, and, of course, National Bugs Bunny Day. If you doubt me on any of this, I remind you that today is also... National Honesty Day!
