David's Daily Devotion for May 1

May 1, 2026 - Good Morning! It’s Friday, May 1. Something lighter today . . .

I love words. I find them endlessly fascinating. And sometimes very confusing. For instance, how is it possible that flammable and inflammable mean the same thing? Here’s some more synonyms that sound like they should actually be opposites.

valuable / invaluable
bone / debone
regardless / irregardless
press / depress
and my personal favorite... caregiver / caretaker

And then there’s those words that seem like they should mean the same thing - but don’t.

You probably realize that every day of the year has dozens and dozens of special “national” observances.

It’s filled with lots of boxes which are filled with lots of stuff, all the stuff that I don’t have room for in my house. Lately I’ve been taking advantage of the lovely spring weather to do some spring cleaning. I’ve been going through barn box after barn box, and I’ve been left with a single thought - Why in the world did I keep all this stuff?

There’s a famous quote, sometimes attributed to Dr. Martin Luther King, that goes like this - “11:00 on Sunday morning is the most segregated hour of the week”. That’s more than just an opinion, statistics bear it out. This Sunday morning, 80% of church members will attend a church where their race is in the overwhelming majority. Most likely you’re one of them.
