Good Morning, Ministry Partner:
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the sake of the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such hostility against himself from sinners, so that you may not grow weary or lose heart.[Hebrews 12:1-3, NRSV]
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
Let us then seek as those who are going to find, and find as those who are going to go on seeking.[Augustine]
Pray Together with Us:
Lord Jesus, help us to be kind and tender-hearted to one another, forgiving one another, as God for your sake, has forgiven us.
As the first martyr prayed to you for his murderers, O Lord, so we fall before you and pray, forgive all who hate and maltreat us and let not one of them perish because of us, but may all be saved by your grace, O God, the all-bountiful.[Eastern Orthodox Church]
