Eternal and ever loving Father,
Join these, my gifts, to the unique offering
Grant, I pray, that guided by the Holy Spirit
Leader: Heart of Jesus burning with love for us
"We discern the freshness and purity of morning, but they do not make us fresh and pure. We cannot mingle with the splendours we see. But all the leaves of the New Testament are rustling with the rumour that it will not always be so. Some day, God willing, we shall get IN."
"All of these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country--a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them."
Hebrews 11:13-16
