Good Morning, Ministry Partner!

Be Encouraged by God's Word
In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he suffered; and having been made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him, having been designated by God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

- Hebrews 5:7-10, NSRV

Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims
Our vision is so limited we can hardly imagine a love that does not show itself in protection from suffering.... The love of God did not protect His own Son.... He will not necessarily protect us - not from anything it takes to make us like His Son. A lot of hammering and chiseling and purifying by fire will have to go into the process.

      -   Elisabeth Elliot

Pray Together with Us

O Lord, never suffer us to think that we can stand by ourselves, and not need thee.

- John Donne
