✨ Announcing Unveiling Abundance: Seeing God’s Goodness in Every Season

For quite some time, I’ve sensed a stirring…
A gentle whisper from the Lord that something new was coming, that things were shifting.
Not a departure from what He’s already done, but a holy refocus. I’ve referenced this a few times in previous writings.

The Lord has revealed so today, I want to share what that means—and where we’re going, together.

🌾 The Season I’ve Been In

For a couple of years now Unveiling Abundance, (the name that the Lord gave me), has sat quietly on my Jesus List—that sacred space where I write down the whispers I hear from the Lord. At first, I didn’t fully know what it meant. I just knew it was something He wanted me to explore, live, and eventually share. But it would be something Big to glorify Him.

Little did I know He was going to walk with me through it firsthand.

This past year has been a season of deep reflection, difficulty, transition, and prayer, oh so much prayer.
There’s been uncertainty, change, and moments of stillness where all I could do was wait and trust. But even in that quiet and many times difficult and doubting space, God was moving. He was preparing. Stretching. Growing. Me.

And more than anything, He was inviting me to see His Abundance—not in the blessings I could count or see, but in the spaces I used to overlook. In those spaces where I often felt unheard and unseen.

He was Unveiling it.
And now, I know it’s time to help others do the same.

✨ A Spirit-Led Journey

Since it’s inception, Ministry Monday has been a space for encouragement, truth, and words from the Lord.
Each week, I’ve followed the leading of the Holy Spirit—writing what He placed on my heart, often in the middle of the mess, the quiet, and even joy.

And while the themes have sometimes felt “random,” they’ve always been timely—for me and, I pray, for many of you too.

But this new season is a shift.
A refocus. A divine refocus.
A journey to intentionally seek and Unveil God’s abundance in every area of life. To be loud and purposeful in seeking His truths and goodness.

💡 So What Is Unveiling Abundance?

At its core, unveiling abundance is about discovery.
It’s the process of uncovering something that appears hidden, overlooked, or underestimated. With Christ, it’s seeing it through the lens of God’s provision, purpose, and presence.

It means opening our eyes to the goodness of God that’s already around us, already within us, and already working through us—even if we don’t recognize it at first.

✨ And What Is Abundance?

According to Webster’s Dictionary, abundance means:

“A large quantity; plenty.”

But biblically, it means so much more.

Abundance is a state of overflowing provision—not just in material things, but more importantly in peace, joy, purpose, presence, and grace.

It’s God’s signature.
It’s His nature.
It’s what He longs to pour out on His children.

We see it in Jesus’ own words:

“I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.”
— John 10:10 (NASB)

Abundance doesn’t mean ease.
It doesn’t mean excess.
It means fullness—in every season, even the hard ones.

🌿 The Shift: Unveiling Abundance

Starting this month, Ministry Monday will step fully into a new rhythm under the banner of Unveiling Abundance—a journey of discovering where God’s goodness has been hidden, overlooked, or underestimated, and bringing it into the light with deeper understanding.

We’ll still explore a variety of topics—but now, every message will be rooted in one guiding truth:

✨ God’s abundance is available in every season of life—if we have the eyes to see it.

Whether we’re walking through waiting, healing, purpose, grief, joy, identity, or provision—we’ll be seeking out the goodness of God. Together.

📖 What to Expect Going Forward

Each Monday, we’ll explore:

• What does it really mean to live an abundant life? A full life in Christ’s Abundance.
• Where is God’s abundance showing up—even when we don’t recognize it?
• How can we shift our mindset from scarcity to fullness?
• What does scripture teach us about living well and walking in overflow?
• How testimonies of God’s Abundance give us hope and bring joy.

You’ll see:

• A new format that flows with story, scripture, reflection, prayer, and encouragement
• New printables, devotionals, and bonus content
• And in time… even podcast episodes and other creative ways to connect!

📅 What’s Coming …
Today, we’ll officially begin this new journey!

But first, let me tell you about the newsletter.

Our first Ministry Monday – Unveiling Abundance message will explore a foundational question:
What does it mean to unveil abundance?
… and how do we begin living in it today?

But the journey doesn’t stop there. To help you stay rooted in this message all week long…

🚨 Introducing the 30-Day Unveiling Abundance Challenge
We’re not just reading—we’re walking this message out.

Starting today, August 1st, we’ll spend 30 days together with one simple question each day to reflect, pray, and open our eyes to how God is already moving.

Each week of the challenge mirrors the theme from that week’s Ministry Monday message—but these questions go even deeper. They’re designed for journaling, prayer walks, quiet time, or open conversations with God and others.

You can follow along daily on my Facebook page [@ShadesOfDivine]—comment, share, or take them into your own quiet space. I’ll be posting daily prompts, reminders, and encouragement to help you walk in the fullness of His presence.

So come walk with me—every day, one step at a time—as we Unveil His Abundance together.

🙌 If you’ve been blessed by this newsletter, now is the time to:

• Stay connected (no action needed if you're already subscribed!)
• Invite a friend to join you: they can subscribe on our home page at www.shadesofdivine.com
• Or simply reply and let me know what abundance means to you—I’d love to hear your heart.

🌸 Closing Words

As we step into this new chapter together, my prayer is that you see the abundance of God in the everyday—in the quiet, in the questions, in the growth, in the joy and even in the waiting. May this journey help you Unveil the Abundance and fullness of His love, His provision, and His presence in every day and every season of your life.

I can’t wait to walk this path with you.

“And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.”
— 2 Corinthians 9:8 (NIV)
