Be Encouraged by God's Word
To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. O my God, in you I trust; do not let me be put to shame; do not let my enemies exult over me. Do not let those who wait for you be put to shame; let them be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous. Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth, and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all day long.

— Psalm 25:1-5, NRSV

Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims

Give me the love that leads the way, the faith that nothing can dismay, the hope no disappointments tire, the passion that will burn like fire; let me not sink to be a clod: Make me Thy fuel, Flame of God.

— Amy Carmichael

Pray Together with Us

You have given so much to me, give one thing more—a grateful heart; not thankful when it pleases me, as if your blessings had spare days; but such a heart whose very pulse may be your praise.

— George Herbert (1593-1633)
