Williamsburg, we sought
out the light generated by
a massive fireworks display.

Being
saved is not the end
but only the beginning of our
spiritual journey to establish
a personal relationship with God

“God
has hidden every precious thing
in such a way that it is a reward to the diligent,
a prize to the earnest,
but a disappointment to the slothful soul.
All nature is arrayed against the lounger and the idler.
The nut is hidden in its thorny case;
the pearl is buried beneath the ocean waves;
the gold is imprisoned in the rocky bosom of the mountains;
the gem is found only after
you crush the rock which encloses it;
the very soil gives its harvest
as a reward to the laboring farmer.
So truth and God must be earnestly sought.”
