Wynonna Judd’s heartfelt words of encouragement and love brought Jenna Bush Hager to tears. What the legendary singer said caused her co-host to react emotionally on-air, creating an unexpectedly beautiful moment. Watch the short clip to hear what Wynonna said, which brought tears to Jenna’s eyes. Be sure you also have some tissues nearby.

Words are powerful and can cause people to react and respond in various ways. What people say to one another can and do build others up and encourage and uplift them when they need it most. One positive, encouraging message could greatly impact someone’s entire life, forever changing the trajectory of their life. It happens more often than we think. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, Wynonna shared a message of encouragement and love with Jenna during a “Jenna & Friends” segment. Jenna and Wynonna were talking about the January tragedy in which a military helicopter struck a commercial plane in Washington, D.C., killing everyone involved.

Wynonna mentioned how short and precious life is and how it can be extinguished without a moment’s notice. Jenna responded that given the tragedies and darkness that permeate the world, she is happy that with her show and platform, she is able to bring some happiness and light to the world every day. That’s when Wynonna shared sweet words of encouragement for her co-host.

“I was going to tell you this, last night I didn’t sleep at all because I just have you on my heart,” Wynonna said to Jenna. “I watch you every day, and I went on my own in 1992, solo, and I think about you so much. And you’re a mom and a wife, and I don’t know how you’re doing this, but I just want to affirm you and say being authentic is lonely. And I can imagine that you feel that way sometimes, but I just love you, and I appreciate you, and I admire you so much.”

Ephesians 4:29 “Let no evil talk come out of your mouth, but only what is good for giving necessary teaching, and for grace. To those who give ear.”

Alexa PenaVega shares how God wept with and comforted her during a season of loss and immense pain. The actress who went through one of the most painful experiences imaginable mentioned how the Lord was with her through it all. Watch the short video to hear how God grieves and comforts His children when they are hurting.

Being a parent is one of life’s biggest blessings. There is nothing like welcoming a new bundle of joy into the world. Children add so much joy, happiness, and love to every household. Because children are such precious gifts from the Lord, losing one can and does result in immense pain, grief and sorrow.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Alexa recalls the painful, horrible experience of losing her baby girl, Indy, soon after the child was born. She mentions that two minutes before the child was delivered, there was a heartbeat. Sadly, soon after that precious baby girl was born, she passed away.

Following the loss of her child, Alexa states how the Lord was with her, provided her comfort and healing, and how she even witnessed Him grieving with and for her. She said that soon after losing Indy, Alexa, even though she was still hurting and suffering, felt an incredible and inexplicable peace.

During the healing process, Alexa was in a therapy session when she received a vision, a scene from the Lord.

“And I closed my eyes, and the Lord gave me this insane vision,” she said. “I was laying in the bed, and Indy was next to me, and they were trying to resuscitate her. The room was filled with angels around every single person in the room. But Indy was in God’s arms, but she was alive in His arms. Even though she was no longer living next to me, she was alive in His arms. But God was weeping. All the angels were weeping. They weren’t like, ‘It’s OK, we have her. She’s safe.’ They were weeping for us, and it gave me a whole new perspective of God, of where when we weep, He weeps because He’s heartbroken for his children. Even though He knew she was fully alive with Him and great and happy, He wept for us. And I felt so seen in that moment.”

Later in the clip, she added that God hurts when we hurt and go through difficult situations.

“In our heaviest moments, in our darkest moments where we truly just feel gutted, know He is weeping for you,” she said. “Sometimes you just want somebody to cry with, and He is, He’s doing that. And I don’t know how to explain it. I wish I had better words for it, but He wept with me, and it really helped. It helped me feel seen.”

Psalm 34:18 “The Lord is near the brokenhearted; he is the savior of those whose spirits are crushed down.”

A young girl honored her late baby brother with a moving, tear-jerking poem. The child, a first grader, decided to put her thoughts and feelings about her little brother, who passed away, down on paper, creating a poem. Watch this short video to hear the child’s poem and learn about the story behind the poem. Make sure to have a box of tissues nearby.

Life is not always a fun experience. Sure, there will be plenty of reasons and occasions when celebrating is warranted and even necessary. Unfortunately, in addition to the happy, joyous moments, there will be instances that bring about pain, grief and sorrow.

One of the most intensely painful, and devastating experiences is losing a loved one. During such times, many people will try to comfort those grieving by falling back on that old cliché, stating that “time heals all wounds.” Of course, that is not true at all. Time may lessen the sting some, but it will always hurt. That person’s absence will forever be a hurtful reminder of who is no longer in our lives.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a little girl, Khali, channeled her pain about losing her baby brother, Houston, into a poem. She wrote down her thoughts and feelings about losing him. The child then recited the poem about her late brother in a talent show and won first prize.

Writing the poem was a cathartic and healing exercise for Khali and her mother, Tijinee. Tijinee was able to grieve and express her feelings as she listened to her daughter during the talent show.

“So, I was actually trying to hold back my emotions because I felt like she was doing something that I couldn’t deliver,” Tijinee said. “So, it was kind of me grieving through her in a better way for me as well.”

Finding a way to grieve, express and channel hurt and sorrow, especially when going through those deep, dark valleys, can be beneficial in the healing process.

Psalm 147:3 “He makes the brokenhearted well and puts oil on their wounds.”

Experiencing the fullness of heaven starts with childlike faith. It’s through trusting, seeking, and following Jesus that we begin to unlock a deeper intimacy with Him—one that opens the door to the heavenly realms where He reigns. As we walk with Him, He gently invites us into more of His presence. All it takes is a willing heart... and one faithful step forward.

You have the ability to rise to a higher plane of existence, a place of eternal peace and joy, even while living on earth. This is the third heaven—a realm that can only be accessed through Jesus, the Door. Imagine living in this heavenly space, walking in close communion with Jesus. Mark Hendrickson reveals how this transformative journey is possible.

Russell Brand reveals one of the greatest blessings he has experienced since embracing Christ. In a powerful and moving moment, the actor, author and podcast host talked about what he believes is one of the best things about being a follower of Jesus Christ. Watch the short clip to hear what Russell says has been an absolute blessing and why.

None of us would have a chance without the wholly unearned and undeserved love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ. All would be lost, condemned and destined to spend eternity separated from Him. Instead of the possibility of Heaven, we’d be facing a much darker, bleaker and frightening destination after our time on Earth ends.

But Christ entered the world and changed everything, giving people hope and a future. In a clip posted on YouTube, Russell mentions what else Christ has done that many may overlook. He calls it one of the greatest blessings that he has experienced since he began following Jesus Christ.

“Since coming to Christ or Christ coming to me, one of the massive benefits of this has been that I’m no longer left as a solitary adventurer when it comes to determining what moral cause to make through issues,” he said. “Because it’s already sort of predetermined by not only Scripture but by actions of Christ.”

Later in the clip, Russell mentions that Christ's teachings, words and examples have and always will go beyond and hold much greater power and worth than anything from any government or ruling power on Earth.

“It’s also a set of morals that supersede whatever governmental moral authority might be used to oppose it,” he said.

As Russell so elegantly and articulately expresses, Christ’s words and actions are the example and guideline of how to go about living daily life.

1 Peter 2:21 “This is God’s purpose for you: because Jesus himself underwent punishment for you, giving you an example, so that you might go in his footsteps:”

A dad’s beautiful words and surprise graduation gift brought his son to tears. The beautiful, heartwarming father-son moment is enough to bring most people, even the most stoic, to tears. Watch the video to see how it all unfolds and to hear the lovely words the father shares with his son. But be sure you have tissues nearby.

Graduations from high school or college are moments and cause for celebration. They are massive educational accomplishments and significant milestones in life that ought to and deserve to be recognized. Those ceremonies are the culmination of a lot of study, hard work, persistence and determination.

Additionally, graduations are typically emotional events. Friends and family will often share how they feel about the graduate. In a clip posted on YouTube, a father used the occasion to tell his son how big of a blessing he is to him and how much he loves and cares for him.

“Don’t ever think I ain’t got you, man,” the proud father tells his son. “You’ve been blessing me all your life. Don’t ever think I ain’t got you. You’ve been a blessing to me and Mama all your life. And I’m going to go all out for you.”

At this point, the young man, touched by his father’s lovely words, has tears streaming down his face.

But that wasn’t all. 

As the family walks together in a parking lot, likely leaving the graduation ceremony, the father has a big surprise for his son. A set of keys is unexpectedly placed in the young man’s hands. He has just been given a brand-new car!

The young man is left speechless, overwhelmed by all the love and appreciation his father is showing him.

The father’s sweet words for his son continue.

“You’re a blessing to me, man,” Dad says to the young man. “You’re a blessing to me, man.”

The clip ends with the young man and his father sharing a warm and loving embrace.

How could you ever watch this moment and not have tears welling up in your eyes?

Ephesians 6:4 “And you, fathers, do not make your children angry: but give them training in the teaching and fear of the Lord.”

After suffering 5 concussions, ongoing brain issues, and persistent dizziness that left 4-5 doctors at a loss for how to treat him—along with mounting medical bills—desperation drove him to the healing rooms. It was there that he accepted Jesus, marking a turning point after 30 years of walking away from the church. Hope and peace returned. Later, Marcus Smith witnessed a miraculous healing and said, "I want that!" Discover how, even when we drift away from God, His love and belief in us never falter. Learn how the impossible becomes possible through the transformative power of faith and divine intervention.

Rych Dorcie struggled with short-term memory loss, making it difficult for him to retain information, such as remembering the content of a book he had just read. One day, while playing a game in a parking lot, he heard a voice urging him to help someone with a flat tire. Initially reluctant, he eventually listened to the voice and stopped to assist. Little did he know that this seemingly small act of kindness would have a profound and unexpected impact on his life, leading to significant positive changes.

Are you really in need of a Savior, or, are you good? #toughquestionsforgod #DailyDevotional #Jesus #Christianity

One man fulfilled a promise he made to his late mother by returning to college and earning a degree at 60 years old. He knew returning to school was something that he wanted and needed to do. Watch the short but sweet video of how one man earning a college degree fulfilled a promise to his mother.

A mother’s love for her child is one of Earth's purest, most beautiful forms of love. There is simply nothing most mothers would not do or sacrifice for the betterment of their children. And because mothers typically have such a strong, never-ending love for their children, those children often reciprocate it. Most children would do anything for their mothers, even if it meant returning to college decades later to earn that degree.

That’s precisely what one man, Allen Brooks, did at 60. In a video posted on YouTube, Allen explains that back in 1982, he initially attended Alabama A&M on a band scholarship. However, Allen admits that his only commitment was to band, and he did not perform well in the classroom, so he left school and got a job.

For years and years after leaving school, Allen’s mother, Sarah Pearl Brooks, made it clear that she wished he would return to school and get that college diploma. In response, Allen told her that he would do that for her one day. In 2020, that one day arrived as Allen returned to Alabama A&M.

Sadly, Allen’s mother passed away in June 2024. Despite losing his mother, Allen pressed on and graduated only months after her passing in December 2024.

“I switched gears and said, ‘Mom is still with me. There’s no way I’m going to stop,’” he said.

But Allen wasn’t the only member of his family involved in the graduation ceremony. His son, a freshman at Alabama A&M, played the tuba as people walked across the stage to receive their diplomas.

Exodus 20:12 “Honor your father and your mother: that your days may be long on the land which the Lord your God gives you.”

A woman’s tearful reaction to a puppy surprise will melt your heart. There she stands in the driveway, the afternoon light clouded by the sun as it wraps itself around her for this tender moment. It’s as if the ordinary knows the extraordinary that’s about to happen in a moment. Her husband had just pulled up to the house and announced he had a surprise for her. 

She strolls over, nearly going to her knees in anticipation as he opens the car door to reveal a tiny little puppy nestled in his lap. But then, she sees it. Him. A tiny, fur-covered miracle perched on her husband’s lap. A puppy. A beautiful, bright-eyed bundle of joy with soft fur, the kind that makes your hands ache to hold it, named Bob Jr.

And oh, you can see it. The way her breath catches in her chest is a moment of love rushing out of her heart. Her hand rises to her mouth, tears spilling before she can even think to wipe them away. She reaches out slowly, reverently like she’s touching something timidly with love. And then, as if the weight of joy is too much to bear, she falls to her knees in the driveway, and she pets her new bundle of joy, a scratch on its soft ears.

Dogs, they say, are a woman’s best friend. And maybe it’s because they carry a kind of unconditional love that mirrors the love of God—always present, always wagging, always ready to offer comfort in a messy, broken world. Maybe it’s because they never ask for words; they just offer their presence. A dog like Bob Jr. doesn’t just fill a home—he fills a heart.

In her tears and laughter, you see it plain as day: love doesn’t wait for introductions or explanations. Sometimes, love simply arrives, paws first, and reminds us that joy often comes in the smallest, furriest packages.

Galatians 5:22-23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.”

It’s the kind of moment that makes time stand still and the heart overflow with love–a young woman jumps for joy at the visit from her grandparents. She steps out of her dad’s car, expecting the same rhythm as any ordinary day. But as she glances towards the porch, she freezes. Her breath catches before she leaps into the air, tossing her backpack aside because something extraordinary is on her front porch. It’s her grandparents. There, standing like a gift of love, are her favorite people. 

This girl’s reaction is instant, shrieks of pure joy and pure love that echo only what family can give. Her feet barely touch the ground as she races to them, her arms flung wide to catch them both in a hug. She can’t help but embrace the two people who have woven so much wisdom, fun, love, and grace into her life. Tears stream freely, not just from her eyes but from her grandparents too, as they hold on to one another as the world shrinks to this one sacred moment. 

Grandparents have a way of anchoring us, don’t they? They are the magic makers of our childhood. They're the ones whose steady hands help teach us to ride a bike, the voices that read stories long past bedtime, and they’re the ones helping us celebrate the big things like graduation, birthdays, weddings, and so much more. They are also the ones who show up for little things that leave imprints on our souls: the quiet conversations over cookies and milk, the knowing smiles across the room, and the unspoken reassurance that they are always there. 

Their thread of love feels both timeless and tender. Their love is a bond that teaches us to slow down, to savor the moment, and to cherish family traditions. And in this fleeting moment on the porch for this young woman, we see the beauty of it all–a young woman melting into the arms of her grandparents with their love spilling over and lifting each other’s hearts in gratitude. 

What a beautiful reminder that love, in all its generations, has the power to turn ordinary into something unforgettable. 

Proverbs 17:6 "Children’s children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children."
