I Love Good News!

Daily writing prompt
You get some great, amazingly fantastic news. What’s the first thing you do?

I love to hear good news. It thrills me and fills me with joy. The first thing I do when I get amazingly fantastic news is to say with great gratitude and electric enthusiasm; “Thank You, Jesus!”

My favorite source for good news is a collection of books called the New Testament. Accept no substitute! The only reliable series about Jesus Christ is The Gospels and the rest of the New Testament! The first 4 seasons are amazing. Choose Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Read them over and over with an open, humble heart and their good news will fill you with glorious views of Christ. Soon you will be saying with great gratitude and electric enthusiasm; “Thank You, Jesus!”

God’s good news
Will give you clear views
Of the nature
Of sin city
And set you free
From the demise
Of its cruel traps.
Evil tries
With many lies
To disguise
It’s destruction.
It gives us false highs
And blinds our eyes
So we don’t realize
Its corruption.
We need to hear
The warning cries
Of our conscience
So we can arise
And revise
Our thinking,
Feelings and desires
To align with
What truth requires.
It’s unwise
To surmise
That you’re immune
To sin city’s
Evil lies.
Now is the time
To avoid the things
That evil tries
To emphasize
And to fully embrace
God’s good news
With your heart and life!

Thank you, Jesus! I’m so grateful for God’s good news!

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
