Use These Books as Devotionals

I've never found much use for books that are written to be devotionals. You know, the ones that have a reading for each day of the year. They usually consist of a verse at the top of the page and a few "thoughts" or a story relating to the verse.

However, I have found that good Bible-saturated, Gospel-centered books with short chapters are excellent to use as devotionals.

I've been reading Tripp's A Shelter in the time of Storm in the mornings. It helps me set my heart on the Lord. It provides direction for my prayers. Another good one is Whiter than Snow by Tripp and Jesus, Keep me Near the Cross by Guthrie.
