Summary: Excellent devotional that's totally Scripture
Comment: This small leather book feels so good in my hand. It's small size makes it easy to put it in a briefcase, backpack, or purse. There are two readings for each day - morning and evening. This book was compiled by Samuel Bagster and first published in 1794.
Anne Graham Lotz introduces this wonderful book to a new generation of Christians. In the preface, she explains that her mother (Ruth Bell Graham) received a copy of this book from her mother at age 10 and has read it every single day of her life. Anne received it from her mother at age 10, and she has likewise given the book to her children.
Each devotion is complete on one page and is totally Scripture. There is a theme, and then the verses all center around that theme. All the references are at the bottom of the page so you can look up the verses if you choose.
This soft leather book has gold-edged pages, and a ribbon marker to keep your place.
Daily Light makes a great gift!

Summary: No Interpretation, Pure Scripture!
Comment: First compiled by Samuel Bagster for family devotions in the 1790s, this is a sure classic! Daily Light is an excellant way to start and end the day by being in the Scriptures with a morning and evening devotion, everyday. Many devotionals have one verse then a page of man's writing that might not prove helpful. With no interpretation by mankind in Daily Light, you can't go wrong. Even the titles are from a Bible verse. Mr. Bagster presents a lifelong study of the Scriptures with so many relevant verses in this compilation. Although I have had my copy but a short time, I had to purchase copies for my wife and mother after they read in mine. The binding of the Essential Christian Library Series is attractive and should prove durable for many years of use. Daily Light will make an excellant gift for birthdays, holidays, weddings and graduations.

Summary: God's Word is Sufficient
Comment: The contents are well described (with the exception of one review) as a brief series of morning/evening readings centered around a topic verse. The format of using the Bible to explain itself is precisely what is unique and useful about this volume. I may not gather the flow of each and every verse as it pertains to the topic (this is rare), but I AlWAYS understand the message from it that God wants me to have. I use this with my children in our family time together in the morning. It might be useful to know that Lilias Trotter, Biddy (Mrs. Oswald) Chambers and Francis and Edith Scaeffer (as well as the Billy and Ruth Graham family) also used this devotional in their private and family readings. Many have remembered special events by it (Francis Schaeffer's death date, for example) as the readings on those days Providentially corresponded to the events. I, too, have purchased copies for each of my children. I have found that this volume is delightfully non-denominational...like Scripture itself. IF there is any bias, it would be that the Bible's words are sufficient for their own interpretation. There are other devotional books that I treasure such as *My Utmost for His Highest* and *Morning and Evening* by C. Spurgeon. But now that I have read them, I use them more for reference during specific study. This little volume, updated by Anne Lotz remains my regular reading every year. Finally, this little guide is perfect for men to keep at work as it is brief, discreet (the front cover is blank), and a perfect size for keeping in the drawer of your desk at work or college. It makes personal devotional time DO-able!! It is purse-sized as well, for professional or on-the-go ladies! For practicality, compact size, lovely and durable leather binding, and the elimination of man's interpretation, I give this 5 stars. Good work Samuel Bagster and thank you, Anne!
