Psalm 112:4-9  
Light shines in the darkness for the upright. 
He is gracious, compassionate, and righteous. 
Good will come to the one who lends generously 
and conducts his business fairly. 
He will never be shaken. 
The righteous one will be remembered forever. 
He will not fear bad news; 
his heart is confident, trusting in the LORD. 
His heart is assured; he will not fear. 
In the end he will look in triumph on his foes. 
He distributes freely to the poor; 
his righteousness endures forever. 
His horn will be exalted in honor. (CSB)

Sunrise breaks through the darkness for good people— 
God’s grace and mercy and justice! 
The good person is generous and lends lavishly; 
No shuffling or stumbling around for this one, 
But a sterling and solid and lasting reputation. 
Unfazed by rumor and gossip, 
Heart ready, trusting in GOD, 
Spirit firm, unperturbed, 
Ever blessed, relaxed among enemies, 
They lavish gifts on the poor— 
A generosity that goes on, and on, and on.
An honored life! A beautiful life! (MSG)

Good lives overflow. They augment and enrich others. They enhance and build up. 

God blesses those who forward his blessings to others. He creates waves of mercy, waves of grace to flow from us to others and beyond. 

Blessings bless most when shared. We are extensions of His Kingdom come when we empower others with the strength he implants in our lives. 

Count your blessings, not your bucks. Blessings abound exponentially more than dollars collect interest. Blessings increase magnificently as they are shared. 

God’s blessings bear light and life. They beautify lives. They heal and give hope. They nurture. They fill the hungry. They hold the hurting. They comfort those experiencing loss. 

As you gather with your church family for worship today, catch God’s wave of grace, mercy, and justice. Share it generously and lavishly. Live an honorable and beautiful life of extravagant generosity. 

I will become a river of God’s extravagant generosity.

Our Father, thank you for your many blessings. Shape my life by your grace, mercy, and justice. Orient my life toward those who need to experience your goodness. Flow through me with extravagant generosity. Amen.

Daily D – Matthew 1:20-21

Matthew 1:20, 21 But after he had considered these things, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because what has been conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.”

Daily D – Hebrews 6:15

Hebrews 6:15 And so, after waiting patiently, Abraham obtained the promise.

Daily D – Hebrews 4:15-16

Hebrews 4:15, 16 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way as we are, yet without sin. Therefore, let us approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in time of need.

Daily D – Psalm 25:8

Psalm 25:8 The Lord is good and upright;
therefore he shows sinners the way.
He leads the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way.

Daily D – Philemon 15, 16

Philemon 15, 16 For perhaps this is why he was separated from you for a brief time, so that you might get him back permanently, no longer as a slave, but more than a slave — as a dearly loved brother. He is especially so to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
