April 2026 Calendar and the Thought to "Be The Good"

Hello! It’s time to start planning with our April 2026 calendar! The thought I chose is be the good. I usually try to keep my calendars pretty uniform but I threw that out the door and went with a colorful option for April’s calendar. So here we go!

April 2025 Calendar and Thought

I want to share a little personal story that goes with the message I chose for the April 2026 Calendar. I’m going to share about a difficult time I was going through at one point in my life. After losing my sister to cancer and nearly losing my husband to a blood clot along with several other changes in my life, I was affected deeply. I was sad, stressed, and had a hard time even thinking! I knew that to remain happy and stay on top of things I needed to be mindful of others more instead of myself. I loved the quiet times I had alone in the mornings when everyone got off to school or work before me. I decided that I would sing this certain song that I loved and see if it would influence my life for GOOD throughout the day if I started my day off with it. I sang that song out loud all by myself every morning. Can you picture this? LOL! I felt so much better after singing this and I noticed myself wanting to be the good more. Now thats a GOOD and HAPPI thing!

Here is the song:

“Have I Done Any Good in The World Today?

Have I done any good in the world today? 
Have I helped anyone in need?
Have I cheered up the sad
and made someone feel glad? 
If not, I have failed indeed.
Has anyone’s burden been lighter today
because I was willing to share? 
Have the sick and the weary
been helped on their way? 
When they needed my help was I there?

[Chorus] 
Then wake up and do something more
Than dream of your mansion above.
Doing good is a pleasure, a joy beyond measure,
A blessing of duty and love.
