📔🎧RESOURCES and Podcasts for Your Journey

Welcome to Your Reflection Tools and Podcast Devotionals

These resources were created to help you slow down, breathe deeply, and invite God’s peace into your week.

Each resource download and podcast devotionals are simple, grace-filled, and aligned with the heart of Encouraging Mondays —

Coaching the Heart and Mind through God’s Word, one Scripture, one goal, one day at a time.

🎧Our Podcast Devotionals are short, peaceful reflections designed to help you pause, breathe, and reconnect with God’s presence in the middle of your day.

Each episode is 2–4 minutes, simple enough to listen to on the go, yet deep enough to nourish your spirit.

These devotionals are not long-form podcasts or interview-style conversations.

Instead, every episode is a gentle extension of the weekly Encouraging Mondays message — offering Scripture, reflection, and a moment of calm for your heart and mind.

🌿Whether you’re driving, preparing a meal, or taking a quiet moment, these short devotionals are here to meet you right where you are.

😊GREETING 

Good, Blessed, Encouraging Mondays, family, friends, and new encouragers.

I’m your host, Shawna S, and I’m so glad you’re here!

📖SCRIPTURE READING

Isaiah 43:19 (NLT):

“See, I am doing a new thing!

Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?

I am making a way in the wilderness

and streams in the wasteland.”

✨DEVOTIONAL REFLECTION:

Family, as we step into this new season, God is not calling us to rush, strive, or force change.

He is inviting us to perceive what He is already doing.

January is not about pressure.

It’s about awareness.

Sometimes we think a “new thing” has to be loud or dramatic. But often, God’s new work begins quietly—in our posture, in our rhythms, and in how we listen.

This season is not about adding more to your plate.

It’s about allowing space.

God designed our bodies and our lives with wisdom—not to run nonstop, not to strive endlessly, but to move in rhythms of nourishment, rest, and restoration.

That’s why this month we’re entering a 21-day journey focused on intentional care—care for the body, care for the heart, and care for the spirit.

This is not about perfection.

It’s about intention.

If you’ve been feeling tired, overwhelmed, or unsure, I want you to hear this clearly today:

You are not behind.

You are not forgotten.

And you are not out of reach.

God is still speaking.

God is still guiding.

And God is still walking with you.

Sometimes the new thing God is doing doesn’t come from effort—but from rest.

🙏🏼CLOSING PRAYER

Heavenly Father,

We thank You for being the Author of our lives and the Designer of our bodies.

Thank You for doing a new thing in this season and inviting us to perceive it.

Teach us how to listen—to You, to our bodies, and to the rhythms You created for healing and restoration.

Release us from pressure, guilt, and striving.

Help us walk in wisdom, grace, and discernment as we care for what You have entrusted to us.

We Pray all of this in Jesus’ name,

Amen.

✨OUTRO 

Thank you for spending these few moments with me today.

Remember, you are seen, you are loved, and you are never walking alone.

Until next time, stay encouraged.

Much love for you all!
