Today

Each day we receive is a gift from God. Every breath you draw and then exhale, around 15 times a minute, is from God. The breath of life, the gift of life – how should we respond?

And how do we manage a day of challenges that take away our thoughts of gratitude for life?

Here are some very good words from Philippians 4:4-8.


Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
