For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son | John 3:16
New Day has a new look and name: MELCHEE (well, except for the New Day LIVE! talk show). Welcome to those new to these parts!
Our mission remains the same: to point others to Christ and serve in love. Faith and community continue to be the heart of what we do, and I’m grateful to be a carrier of this work. To God be the glory in all.
Here in the midst of Lent, our hearts are focused on Christ. We reflect on our need for forgiveness and receive His unmatched love to wash away our sins. What a great and mighty God we serve to think of us in such a way as to save us. We’re undeserving, but His love shines greater than the whole of our sins. It’s often mysterious, hard to grasp, unfeelable. But it’s available to those who say yes to it.
The end of our fasting, praying, and reading during this season should be change. We should have renewed focus to live for Christ. Fasting (from food, the biblical way) should show our need to turn away from sin, and so our commitment must be firm. We will fall, but the goal is to fall less. We should see growth and strength as a result of our time spent with the Lord and resurrection with Christ from the dead of our choices. Thank God for allowing us to be in worship of Him!
Here at MELCHEE, we don’t just share empty words that you’ll soon forget, but our hope is that you’ll see our every effort to share Christ’s message of amazing grace and to enrourage involvement in community, helping brothers and sisters in need, showing Christ’s love tangibly. This is the favorable time, and it’s the time to live for Him. We pray you’ll join us on this journey.

Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV
I appreciate time this year, after the successful season two premiere of New Day LIVE! in March (listen to the episode here), to focus on Lent and to journey with Christ to the cross, reflecting on my own sin and being grateful for my Savior’s great sacrifice. Then Easter celebration and resurrection day came wherein we praised our Lord for renewed hearts, expressing joy over being raised with Christ from the dead of our sins. I pray you, too, have had a blessed time with God as you read Scripture, fasted, and gave thanks for salvation.

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord . . . Jeremiah 29:11
We’re in year eight here on New Day! It all started right here on the blog, and we’re grateful for the vision and grace and plans that have brought us to this point. So . . . happy anniversary, New Day!
God the Lord has so much in store for us and you this year! His plans are great and beyond what we could ask or think. Want to know how to access the abundance that awaits? Get in position! Proactively stand ready to receive what He’s promised you. Stay in the Word, stay “prayed up,” and cling to God with all you’ve got! And remember: Staying close to God means staying away from distractions that keep you from living for God fully. Tune your spiritual ears to hear how He is leading you and pruning you, if you will. These are ways to get and stay in position to access the blessings God will pour out!
