May the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. —Phil 4:7

Reflection. The older we get, the greater becomes our inclination to give thanks, especially heavenward. We feel more strongly than we could possibly have ever felt before that life is a free gift . . . and every hour . . . an unexpected gift to be gratefully received.
—Martin Buber

Prayer. Dear Father, how fortunate I am to enjoy the gift of life. Thank You.
