And here's the little book from Ruth's daughter, Anne, that I'm planning on giving grandson Sparky for his tenth birthday in November. Why? From the books intro:
In my family, one way the 'baton' had been passed from generation to generation is through the use of this little volume entitled Daily Light...my grandmother gave a volume to my mother (Ruth) when she was a young child in China. In fact, my mother can never remember a day in her life when she has not read it. My mother gave me my first volume on my tenth birthday. I have read it every day since. I gave a volume to my children on their tenth birthdays, and it has become a regular part of their daily devotions. To this day, one of the sweetest blessings for me is to know each morning and evening when I read Daily Light, that my parents and children, wherever they might be, are reading the same thing.
