do good, be kind.

My friend, Eunique Jones Gibson, joined us on Season 2 of Love, Maaden: The Podcast and said this, “At the end of the day, I just want to make God smile.” Isn’t that something? To know that we have the ability to make God — the Creator of all things — smile.

Hebrews 13:16 reminds us that God is pleased with our good deeds. And I imagine that if we can make God smile by doing good, we can make so many others smile just the same! I have spent some time in my Bible reading and reflecting on this, and have identified practical steps that we can take to guide us on our path toward doing good, beginning with gratitude.

On December 1, I am embarking on a 21-day guided practice of goodness and gratitude, and I would love to have you join me. Over the three weeks, in just a few minutes a day, we will:

• express gratitude,

• give generously, and

• be kind.

It’s simple and free to join. To download the 21-day guide, simply click here and it will be emailed to you. If you want to take your experience a step further, shop my collection of goods & gifts from The Good Series here. Each item was intentionally designed with love by me, and comes in a black canvas tote emblazoned with the mantra, Goodness + Gratitude.

I look forward to connecting with you over these 21 days of goodness and gratitude — let’s check in on Instagram @lovemaaden!

Love, Maaden
