How to Share a Monday Blessing

• Send it early. A blessing that arrives before work starts feels like encouragement. One that arrives at 4 p.m. feels like an afterthought.
• Add a name and one detail. “Happy Monday, Sarah. Praying your presentation goes well” means more than a forwarded image.
• Match the blessing to the person. Use the short lines for coworkers and acquaintances, and save the longer prayers for close family and friends.
• Pair words with an image. Our Monday blessing images are free to save, text and pin for personal use. Please read our image license and sharing terms before posting them on a business page.
• Keep the rest of the week covered. When Monday is done, Tuesday blessings are ready to go, and our good morning blessings work any day.
