I decided to give it a try anyway. Boy, was I surprised! Chambers knew how to pack a lot onto a small page. Most days, he refers to other passages that I can read, or the devotion for the day just makes me want to read the entire passage from which the selected verse was chosen. His devotional readings really make one think! First of all, it is written differently than we speak today...but also because the man was obviously gifted at thinking/writing about spiritual things. I ususally end up reading the devotion several times, digging deep into the message. (After telling my preacher husband this he said, "That book hasn't been around for 100 years for nothin'!")
I can't believe I have never read this classic devotional book before! (I mean, shouldn't that have been a requirement before we left seminary or something??...hehe!) I encourage you to give it a try if you haven't already.
