Daily Devotional • December 6 A Reading from Amos 5:18-27 18 Woe to you who desire the day of the Lord! Why do you want the day of the Lord? It is darkness, not light, 19 as if someone fled from a lion and was met by a bear or went into the house and rested a hand against the wall and was bitten by a snake. 20 Is not the day of the Lord darkness, not light, and gloom with no brightness in it? 21 I hate, I despise your festivals, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies.
