Verse of the day
Do not say, “Why were the former days better than these?” For it is not from wisdom that you ask this.
Ecclesiastes 7:10
Voice of the day
The exquisite pain of being alive has something to do ... with how impossible it should be to have these moments of beauty—this sea breeze, that inquisitive finch, this small foot in a bunk bed, that laughter after a fall—but perhaps even more to do with how many choices we slowly realize we can never relive, never re-choose.
Prayer of the day
There’s so much we may regret in this life, Lord; may we know there is grace for our mistakes and the things that have been left undone. May we steward the gift of choice well.
