I have taken 20 Bible passages as a basis for 20 daily devotions. Each devotion begins with a verse-by-verse commentary followed by application and prayer. Although I only quoted a short passage of scripture for each devotion, readers are encouraged to read the whole chapter to get a flavor of the context and background. I pray that these daily devotions will uplift, encourage, and stimulate readers to read and meditate on scriptures on their own.

2 Timothy 2:15, NIV, Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
