For over 150 years, Charles Spurgeon’s Morning & Evening devotional readings have been a source of spiritual encouragement and comfort, and are as relevant today as when they were written. Inspiring quotes from Spurgeon are displayed and matched with beautiful images from nature. For devotional use or a quick spiritual lift during a busy day, this app will be a blessing for you, plus you can share it with your friends via Facebook or email. Use the notification feature for an automatic daily reminder.

Here’s a review from Pinkroselady: “What a great app! The words of the Lord with such beautiful pics of His creation! I use the app every day and anytime I can get this inspirational message in front of my eyes, I have a better day! So needed in the midst is such strife and contention. You will not regret having this app in your daily repertoire! Bless U! 5 stars.”

Even if you are unsure of your faith, the writings of Spurgeon can have a profound effect on your life. Taken in small daily doses, these timeless truths can help draw you nearer to God. As you look at the screenshots, you will see examples of how the images are matched with the quotes by keyword, concept or thought, giving further visual meaning to the passage.

Spurgeon was a gifted wordsmith who could craft beautiful imagery to convey spiritual truth, as in the following quote: “Be you as the brook wherein you may see every stone at the bottom – not as the muddy creek, of which you only see the surface – but clear and transparent, so that your hearts love to God and man may be visible to all.”

While Spurgeon’s words and phrasing are from a bygone era, it gives the passages a more formal and majestic feel, enhancing the message and meaning. One of our reviewers put it this way: “The unfamiliar English makes his thoughts deeply poetic and musical to us today. Such wisdom and insight is rare and precious.”
