Be Encouraged by God's Word
Immediately he spoke to them and said, “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” Then he climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. They were completely amazed, for they had not understood about the loaves; their hearts were hardened.

— Mark 6:50-52, NIV

Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims
Fear closes the mind and the heart and dries up the source of love.

Pray Together with Us

My gracious Master and my God,
   assist me to proclaim,
to spread through all the earth abroad
   the honors of thy name.
Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
   that bids our sorrows cease;
'tis music in the sinner's ears,
   'tis life, and health, and peace.

— Charles Wesley
