MORNING AND EVENING by CHARLES SPURGEON

 

I purchased MORNING AND EVENING by Charles Spurgeon for two reasons: I am reading books and listening to audio teachings by him and, I like the idea of morning and evening prayers. I was able to purchase this hard cover copy, 3rd printing published in1992, for about $5 from my favorite bookstore: Thriftbooks. 

I really thought the book was a collection of prayers, it is not, it is a collection of reflections / devotionals. The difference between these words of wisdom and others, I have quite a few, they are not as simplistic as many of the modern day books are, which are often given as gifts. 

I do like the collection, I have gone over a few of the  days both morning and evening, I subsequently  downloaded the FREE audio version, which is in 5 parts, via YouTube @Liborvox Audiobooks. If you like daily devotionals I would suggest you purchase this book, if you can get a copy, I think there is a revised version.

The reason why I am switching to the audiobook is because I don’t want to add more to my morning and evening routine than what I have. I will not be able to consistently read the reflections in the morning and evening but, I will, probably, be able to listen to them twice a day. I will have the book if I hear something that I feel compelled to read and make notes about.

Currently I am reading Praying Successfully by Charles Spurgeon. I am really interested in the writings of Charles Spurgeon and though neither book was on my reading list, he is worth the read.
