Be A Beacon Of Light, A Shelter Of Peace, Be Present To Others

Enveloped in Your Light, may I be a beacon to those in search of

Light. Sheltered in Your Peace, may I offer shelter to those in

need of peace. Embraced by Your Presence, so may I be present

to others.

Embrace Challenge To See The World

Climb the mountain not to plant your flag,

but to embrace the challenge, 

enjoy the air and behold the view. 

Climb it so you can see the world, 

not so the world can see you.

Recognize The Moment's Possibilities & Challenges

You do not need to know precisely what is happening, 
or exactly where it is all going. 

What you need is to recognize 
the possibilities and challenges 
offered by the present moment, and to 
embrace them with courage, faith, and hope.
