The Magnitude of God’s Grace.

Cindy Dawson

Quote of the Week for 12/24/25

“God desires that His children not only receive His grace but understand why it is precious. Through the Son, believers learn to value mercy because they see what it cost…
In Christ’s submission to the Father’s will, the depth of divine mercy is revealed. The Father’s justice and compassion meet perfectly in the cross. In that sacred union, the believer learns both the seriousness of sin and the magnitude of grace.”

Do You Love Animals, Too?

Cindy Dawson

1-minute devotion for Tuesday, 12/23/25

“Your unfailing love, O Lord, is as vast as the heavens;
    your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds.
Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains,
    your justice like the ocean depths.
You care for people and animals alike, O Lord.
   How precious is your unfailing love, O God!“
Psalm 36:5-7a NLT (emphasis mine)

Here are a few of my favorite pets and animals:

Finding True Contentment

Cindy Dawson

1-minute devotion for Monday, 12/22/25

“Make sure that your character is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, “I will never desert you, nor will I ever abandon you,” Hebrews 13:5 NASB (emphasis mine)

“We can grow content as we learn to express gratitude for what we have, rather than complain about what we’re missing … God already has blessed us with so much. Satan schemes to redirect our focus to what eludes us, thus fostering a malignant virus of discontent. Instead, why not take inventory of all that God has blessed you with and thank Him for each and every blessing you note?” NKJV Charles F. Stanley Life Principles Bible Notes

Spread the Good News

Cindy Dawson

1-minute devotion for Friday, 12/19/25

“Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. They will say, “What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again?”

“But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day. The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent.” 2 Peter 3:3-4a and 3:8-9 NLT Read full chapter

My thoughts: Now is the time to spread the Good News, while Jesus tarries.

What Has God Called Me to Do?

Cindy Dawson

Quote of the Week for 12/17/25

“Your call will become clear as your mind is transformed by the reading of Scripture and the internal work of God’s Spirit. The Lord never hides His will from us. In time, as you obey the call first to follow, your destiny will unfold before you. The difficulty will lie in keeping other concerns from diverting your attention.”

A Lesson From Henry, the Yorkie

Cindy Dawson

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,

“When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’ and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ 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 God—  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).

Keep Planting Those Seeds!

Cindy Dawson

1-minute devotion for Monday, 12/15/25

“What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow.” 1 Corinthians 3:5-6 NIV (emphasis mine)

My Thoughts: Keep planting seeds because it is God who will make them grow. If you know very worldly people, figuring out how to share the Gospel can be overwhelming. Maybe they are neighbors or co-workers you care about. May this verse encourage you to keep planting seeds! Pray that the Lord will make them grow!

How Can I Gain Wisdom?

Cindy Dawson

1-minute devotion for Sunday, 12/14/25

“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” Proverbs 9:10 NIV

My Thoughts: To fear the Lord means you wouldn’t dare exalt your own opinions and desires above God’s Word. Trusting God’s Word is the secret to this treasure.

Putting Others First

Cindy Dawson

1-minute devotion for Thursday, 12/11/25

“Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.” Philippians 2:3-4 ESV

My Thoughts: I’m reminded of the day, many years ago, when the Holy Spirit brought this verse to my mind in a specific situation. It isn’t always easy, but it’s God’s way and how we should live.
