Streams in the Desert: 366 Daily Devotional Readings

Lettie Cowman, writing from a time of hardship, found in faith a steady source of comfort, and her meditations have since reached generations of readers. This edition updates the language of the original collection while keeping its scripture-based readings. Each day's entry explores God's provision, His purposes, and the way difficult seasons can lead a believer to deeper trust. The short readings are designed to be taken one a day across a year, offering encouragement to people who feel they are walking through a dry stretch. The book is meant for personal devotion, with a steady focus on hope and the presence of God.
