Our Monthly Devotions

Résumé

"Our Monthly Devotions" by Albert A. Lings is a devotional book written in the late 19th century. This work is structured around a calendar year, providing considerations and prayers for each day of the month, with a focus on different religious themes and figures from the Christian tradition. The book aims to guide readers in their spiritual lives through monthly reflections, prayers, and specific devotions tied to the life of Jesus and Mary. At the start of the book, the author presents the concept of dedicating each month to a specific theme or devotion, starting with January's focus on the Holy Infancy of Jesus. The opening introduces the idea of meditating on the virtues exemplified in the life of Christ as an infant, encouraging readers to reflect on the lessons of goodness, mercy, and childlike faith. Lings emphasizes the importance of these devotions in growing closer to God and living a faith-filled life, presenting prayers intended for daily use to foster spiritual growth throughout January.
