GOOD NEWS

GENESIS 9:9-11 (MSG)
Then God spoke to Noah and his sons: “I’m setting up my covenant with you including your children who will come after you, along with everything alive around you—birds, farm animals, wild animals—that came out of the ship with you. I’m setting up my covenant with you that never again will everything living be destroyed by floodwaters; no, never again will a flood destroy the Earth.”

COLOSSIANS 1:23 (CEV)
You must not give up the hope you received when you heard the good news. It was preached to everyone on earth...

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Maintain the hope that is yours through the merciful good news of Christ Jesus.

PRAYER
Good God, your good news fills us with hope. We know that through Christ you poured out your mercy on the whole world. But what I know and how I live are often different. Help me to fix my hope firmly in the good news and nothing else. I'm going to live by your good news and spread it around to everyone within earshot. Amen.
