Wellness Wednesday: Goodness Follows Me & Love Surrounds Me

True wellness isn’t just about our bodies. It’s about the state of our hearts and minds too. When we choose to declare that goodness follows us and love surrounds us, we create space for peace, confidence, and joy to flourish — even in the middle of ordinary or difficult days.

This week’s challenge is beautifully designed to help us live this truth out loud. It gives us practical, everyday ways to speak life, protect our peace, and walk in the goodness and love of God:

• Speak positively over yourself
• Avoid toxic conversations
• Send encouraging texts daily
• Spend time with uplifting people
• Listen only to positive music/podcasts
• Do one loving act anonymously
• Write affirmations every morning

These aren’t just nice suggestions. They are wellness practices that rewire our minds, lift our spirits, and help us live the abundant life Jesus promised us.

Reflection

Declaring “Goodness Follows Me & Love Surrounds Me” is one of the most powerful things we can do each day. It is not denying reality or pretending life is perfect. It is choosing to see reality through the lens of God’s faithful love and goodness.

When we speak positively over ourselves, we are agreeing with what God says about us. When we avoid toxic conversations and negativity, we are protecting the temple of the Holy Spirit. When we send encouraging texts and do loving acts anonymously, we are becoming the hands and feet of Jesus. When we surround ourselves with uplifting people and positive input, we are stewarding our minds and hearts well.

This week is about more than personal wellness. It is about becoming a carrier of God’s goodness and love into every space we enter — our homes, our workplaces, our schools, and our communities.

We are also excited to share that as part of our Back to School efforts, we are working to inspire 30,000 students around the country with positive messages, encouragement, and tools to start their school year strong. This engraving and this week’s challenge are perfectly timed to help students, parents, and teachers walk into the new school year knowing that goodness follows them and love surrounds them.

As we move through Week 8, let’s commit to being fully present. Let’s speak life. Let’s surround ourselves with goodness. Let’s become the kind of people who carry God’s love and joy everywhere we go.
