I have problems with waking up early to have my time with God in the morning. I am NOT a morning person. BUT, I definitely recognize the benefit in my day if I think on Him and the mercies that are new in Him for me each morning. So, taking both of those things into consideration, I have started having devotionals emailed to me every morning. I am loving it. At first, I was worried that I wouldn't have much to choose from. I knew that The Upper Room and Daily Bread did an online thing, and I visit Oswald Chambers My Utmost for His Highest blog regularly. Those are all great...but seem old fashioned. So, I googled and found christianity.com.
I want to say upfront that I have only used the site for the reason I looked for it. There is tons on the site that I have not explored, yet. But, I loved what it had to offer me in daily devotionals. There are seventy-two devotionals to choose from. They have the devos broken down under subject lists with descriptions for each one that includes the author of the devotional. I chose several to see which ones were most beneficial for me. I have found them all to be of great benefit for me each morning. I chose one for different aspects of my life...parenting, marriage, being a woman. I also chose one on the names of God which digs into some greek and one that is a reading plan through the Word.
I know that in terms of being fed spiritually an emailed devotional is fast food...but it is better than going hungry all day!
