In Yesterday's Reflections, author Albert F. Schmid invites us to consider the various holidays that are celebrated throughout the year. He provides interesting facts about each holiday and includes the religious origins of them where relevant because many of our holidays have a religious connection.

In Yesterday's Reflections, author Albert F. Schmid invites us to consider the various holidays that are celebrated throughout the year. He provides interesting facts about each holiday and includes the religious origins of them where relevant because many of our holidays have a religious connection. He also explains important points about the holidays, such as why Easter is always on a Sunday and why Thanksgiving is always on the fourth Thursday in November. In addition, he includes devotionals on topics ranging from "Contentment" to "God Is Where Love Is." Each devotional includes the pertinent Scriptures, a story to illustrate the point being made, and Schmid's comments. For example, "The Rear View Mirror" tells the story of Grace, who remembers her father's advice for driving in the snow: "find a snow plow and follow it." When she encounters a blizzard, she does this; an hour later, the driver stops to make certain she is all right, as he had plowed a large parking lot, was moving on to the next business, and was concerned when he noticed that she was following him. We often become comfortable thinking that we can just "follow the snow plow" when in truth we need to learn to trust God and let Him lead the way. Yesterday's Reflections is an inspiring collection that reminds us that we are Christ's ambassadors and that God expects each of us to live and act as though He is making His appeal through us. The best sermons are not preached; they are lived.
