It has been said that what I appreciate appreciates. The more I give thanks for what I have, the more blessings I will discover.

Practicing gratitude in all circumstances helps me realize how abundantly blessed I am. When I remember all the good that God is, more good is revealed to me. Taking a breath, I give thanks for life. Opening my eyes, I give thanks for the clarity of spiritual vision. Listening deeply, I give thanks for divine wisdom. With each bite of food, every sip of water, I feel grateful for my body and physical senses.

There is so much to appreciate, from the small everyday things to life’s most grand events. Giving thanks with my whole heart brings me joy. I practice appreciation for all that I am, all that I have, and all that I do

Today I bless my father and give thanks for the part he played in my life. I also bless those who showed me fatherly love, who taught and guided me, who led by example by demonstrating the divine attributes of strength and wisdom.

The love and support I received from all the father figures of my life helped me become the person I am today. I am grateful for these special ones, who saw my potential and encouraged me to reach high and pursue my dreams. I am also thankful to them for the encouragement they provided during times of disappointment and discouragement.

I bless the world’s fathers and pray they know the support and guidance they have so lovingly shared with me.

What if teaching children about peace begins not with having all the answers, but with being present in the moments that matter?

Mindfulness can help children navigate big feelings, find inner calm, and discover the peace that already lives within them. And as we guide them, we may discover that we too are learning to pause, breathe, listen, and reconnect with the Divine Presence within.

Through small, everyday moments, peace becomes more than something we teach—it becomes something we live.

Myrtle States: I do not believe in weakness or in lack of life. The life in my blood is not material, but spiritual. It is not limited, and does not wear out. My blood is renewed daily, and it is made Fewer, fresh, rich, and abundant by the life of God.

It manifests the spiritual abundance, which in reality it is. By means of this abundant substance and life in my blood, my entire Organism is built up and made strong, vigorous and every wit whole.

I am now living in the eternity which God has planned for me. Each morning, I am born anew, and I come into a new world of joy and interest. I am about my Father's business, and the great satisfaction which my soul knows to be a gift of God, is an abiding reality and experience.
