Streams in the Desert

2 Minutes a Day Devotional! Seriously. Aside from prayer, this 2 minute investment is just that. Your life will be changed. Every book I post, you can see sample pages/passages if you look online at bn.com. Still, I want to post a short sample passage...Go ahead, time it.
Here's May 3rd:
Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.(Joel 2:32)
So why don't I call on His name? Why do I run to this person or that person when God is so near and will hear my faintest call? Why do I sit down to plot my own course and make my own plans? Why don't I immediately place myself and my burden on the Lord? Straight ahead is the best way to run, so why don't I run directly to the living God? Instead, I look in vain for deliverance everywhere else, but with God I will find it. With Him I have His royal promise: "I will be saved."

My situation is urgent, and I cannot see how I will ever be delivered. Yet, this is not my concern, for He who made the promise will find a way to keep it. My part is simply to obey His commands, not to direct His ways. I am His servant, not His advisor. I call upon Him and He will deliver me. (Charles Spurgeon)
You can get this book for less than $5.00! I know you'll love it and I bet you'll even end up buying it for a friend or two.
