Whatever is lovely,
whatever is admirable . . .
think about such things.

In the beginning God . . .
. . . God created . . .
— Genesis 1:1
He covers the sky with clouds;
he supplies the earth with rain
and makes the grass grow on the hills.
Psalm 147:8
Never forget:
You are significant
and your life has meaning--whatever your age.
You are divinely created, uniquely gifted,
and passionately loved by your Creator.
Nothing happens to you that is an accident.
So step in hope toward the unknown future
with the deepest source of your identity
rooted in God.
The best things are nearest:
breath in your nostrils,
light in your eyes,
flowers at your feet,
duties at your hand,
the path of God just before you.
