Happy Monday!

I hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend and an exceptional Father’s Day. In connection to Father’s Day, look at Psalm 103:13. It says, “As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.”

Compassion is God’s love and mercy in action! Psalms 103:4 (AMPC) says, God “redeems your life from the pit and corruption” and “beautifies, dignifies, and crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercy.” This is an amazing benefit and promise for your life today!

In the same way that a father has compassion on his kids, God has compassion on you. He’s not mad at you. He’s madly in love with you. God’s heavenly compassion far exceeds any earthly compassion. Today, His love and mercy is beautifying, dignifying, surrounding, and upgrading your life. Believe it. Expect it. Be grateful for it.

This is a mercy filled Monday for you. In today’s devotional podcast, I share more about God’s mercy and why you should expect it. Stream it and then share it with someone you know that needs to hear it and be encouraged.

I am praying for you! Remember to pray the daily prayer for 2026. After you pray the daily prayer, as I shared above, pause and take time to listen. Always remember, prayer is not complete until you take time to listen.

We are reading through the Bible this year. Today’s reading plan is located at the bottom of this newsletter. If you want a pdf print out of the plan, click here.

I am the salt of the earth. I am the light of this world. Jesus said it so I believe it. I am a carrier of the Glory of God. Today, I will experience the extreme goodness of God. Today, I make myself available for God to show His goodness to others through me.  Today, I am increasing in influence. Today, I will see the goodness of God in my life! Today, something good is going to happen to me so I expect miracles. 

We are reading through the Books of Joshua & Judges in June. Today, read Judges 19 & 20.
