Be Encouraged by God's Word
Then Moses went up to God; the Lord called to him from the mountain, saying, “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the Israelites: You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. Now therefore, if you obey my voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my treasured possession out of all the peoples. Indeed, the whole earth is mine, but you shall be for me a priestly kingdom and a holy nation.

- Exodus 19:3-6a, NRSV

Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims
Teach us, O Lord, the disciplines of patience, for to wait is often harder than to work.

- Peter Marshall

Pray Together with Us
Merciful Lord, Comforter and Teacher of your faithful people, increase in your Church the desires you have given. Strengthen the hearts of those who hope in you, and show them the depth of your promises. Lead all your adopted children to see with the eyes of faith, and help them wait patiently for the light that is now hidden through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

- Ambrose (d. 397)
