The Bedside Book: Daily Readings and Prayers for Testing Times, Paperback

Times of sickness are dark and confusing - tensions can run high and fear begin to be a constant presence, affecting everything. David Short compiled this little book of meditations for times like these. When there is nothing left to say which can comfort or appease, and when we are at our lowest, Christ is our Rock and God our comfort, guarding our hearts and minds. Through 31 days of Bible verses, prayers, and hymns, The Bedside Book helps you to focus again on the voice of the Father - the best comfort there is on offer.

David Short (1918 - 2005) spent the major part of his medical career as a consultant cardiologist in Aberdeen. He was appointed Queen's Physician in Scotland, and on his retirement Emeritus Professor of Clinical Medicine. Besides his medical work and writing, he was for many years an elder and a preacher at a local independent church.
