Adventure


Disturb us, Lord, to dare more boldly. 
To venture on wider seas, where storms will show your mastery;
where losing sight of land, we shall find the stars.
We ask that you push into the future -
In strength, courage, hope, and love. 
Because we have dreamed too little, 
When we arrived safely 
because we sailed too close to the shore.
- Sir Francis Drake (1540-1596)

You are the Light of the World


You are the light of the world.
A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.
Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl.
Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

Let your light shine...
