Watch for the Light
As with any collection of devotionals, some will land and others will miss. I was pleasantly surprised at the depth of reflection prompted by many of these writings. I found them introspective and challenging, which for me, is a welcome change from the overt and blind praise offered by many devotions. These certainly were praiseful of God and the newborn babe, but they shifted the focus to what it means to follow Jesus. It was a call to incorporate faith into one's life - going far beyond asking for prayers on social media or lashing out at whatever the dominant (and modern) powers suggest should be an object worthy of Christian faith.
