PRAYER OF THE WEEK: Lord, we praise You for the gift of life right now. Thank you for the years you have added to our lives, for each day, for each moment, for each memory with another human being.  There is so much unknown in this world - so many things that exceed our comprehension or understanding. Thank you for being bigger than it all. Thank you for holding us in Your powerful hands. We have peace in our hearts because we are confident that you will work out your plans for our life. Thank you for reminding us of the fragility of life. And for the countless times your angels have protected us, surrounded us and wrapped us in safety.  Give us eyes to live with a deeper gratitude and appreciation for the love you have for us and the ways you protect us. We will not live in fear or worry and we thank you for the hope you give us in your presence. Teach us how to live with joy beyond explanation and to have a heart overflowing with abundance for life and each precious gift You shower on us. We love you, In Jesus' Name, Amen
