“The very thing you take for granted, others are praying for.” – Marlan Rico Lee

Few of us ponder honestly the profound fragility and beauty of life at any age. Today I share an experience from my time as a hospital chaplain that woke me up to be far more intentional in savoring the profound gift of each day.

The goal of life isn’t to number the days to keep score, but in order to live them passionately, faithfully, intentionally, and lovingly.

I encourage you to choose to number your days. Rejoice in what you have and those gathered around you. And in the midst of the anxiety, difficulty and unknowns of this day, remain confident that this day remains a gift and even better days are yet to come.
