Happy Monday!

Welcome to a brand new week. Something good is going to happen to you today. Remember, it is the will of God for your life to be filled with good things. Psalms 103:5 (NLT) says, “He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle's!” God wants your life filled with His goodness.

God is good to you even when you make mistakes. Your mistakes do not stop His desire of being good to you. Romans 2:4 says, “Don’t you see how wonderfully kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Does this mean nothing to you? Can’t you see that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin?” (NLT)

Kindness is also translated as goodness. God’s goodness is designed to bringing us to a place of repentance. God is good to us even when we make mistakes. It doesn’t mean He approves of our sin. It means that He is giving us time to repent and get back to living the good life He designed for us.

Repentance is simply changing your mind and changing your direction. In today’s podcast, I share more about the goodness of God leading us to repentance. I also lead you in a special prayer for loved ones who are far from God. 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 1st & 2nd Samuel this Summer. Today, read 1st Samuel 7 & 8.
