Description
A small devotional book of 1892, arranged by Elizabeth Cureton from the writings of Henry Drummond, the Scottish preacher and author of The Greatest Thing in the World. Short passages are set out day by day through the year, each drawn from Drummond's books on natural law, love, and the Christian life.
The selections press a simple point: faith should show in conduct, self-denial buys the larger good, and the laws of nature and of spirit run together. Cureton chose them to help a friend enjoy Drummond's longer works, and the book reads as a bedside companion rather than an argument. It captures a Victorian habit of daily reading meant to steady the reader's temper and aims.
