2-minute devotion for Tuesday, 12/9/25
About a month ago, we went off Daylight Saving Time. But Henry, my Yorkie, refuses to change his inner clock. He is still on DST! That means his clock is an hour ahead of our new time.

No matter how many times I tell him, “It’s not time yet!” He just keeps barking at me. (But I just refuse to take him on his morning walk before the sun comes up!)

Henry has firm expectations! For example, He expects lunch at exactly 11:00 DST, baby carrots at 2:00 DST, dinner at 4:00 DST, and a walk at 4:30 DST.
Why am I telling you all this? Well, it reminds me that just as Henry is totally unaware of the time in which we live, many people in the world are unaware of the times in which we live.
Jesus warned the Pharisees,
βWhen evening comes, you say, βIt will be fair weather, for the sky is red,β and in the morning, βToday it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.β You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.“Matthew 16:2-3
We need only to look to God’s Word to interpret the signs of the times.
“But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of Godβ having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.” 2 Timothy 3:1-5
Then, there’s this: Ezekiel prophesied a physical and spiritual return of Israel to their land (Ezekiel 37). This happened on May 14, 1948. Having Israel as a nation in its own land is important because Israel is prominent in eschatology (Daniel 10:14; 11:41; Revelation 11:8).
In His Love, Cindy
