  18. If you're brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting, which can be anything from your house to bitter, old resentments, and set out on a truth-seeking journey, either externally or internally,

  19. and if you are truly willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue

  20. and if you accept everyone you meet along the way as a teacher

  21. and if you are prepared, most of all, to face and forgive some very difficult realities about yourself,

  22. then the truth will not be withheld from you.

  26. Brad Gast says, “No matter what happens, no matter how far you seem to be away from where you want to be, never stop believing that you will somehow make it.

  27. Have an unrelenting belief that things will work out, that the long road has a purpose, that the things that you desire may not happen today, but they will happen.

  28. Persist and persevere, your desired path remains possible.”

  29. As we take up the offering, we are reminded that all we are called to do as individuals and as a church is possible so long as we never give up and always give our best.
