Scripture Readings:  Proverbs 25:21-28, Daniel 4-5, Revelation 1

Reflection Verse:  Proverbs 25:25

Reflection:  One of the most refreshing things we can hear is good news from someone we care about. Isn’t it refreshing to hear of a someone getting a job after much searching, or a colleague calling to tell how God is working in their life, or hearing the words of a loved one declaring after a recent doctor’s visit, “I am cancer free?!” Oh, Beloved, I don’t know about you, but I rejoice when I hear good news. It picks me up and encourages me knowing that God is yet answering the prayers of the righteous.

Prayer: Dear God, my Heavenly Father, thank You for hearing and answering prayers. Thank You for the joy that accompanies a breakthrough or a long-awaited blessing. Dear God, when I hear good news, I know that You care about us and are working on my behalf as well as others, for You are the giver of every good and perfect gift. Thank You, Father for Your Divine care… In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
