Take courage,
   all you people of the land,
                    says the LORD;
work for I am with you,
       says the LORD of hosts...
...My Spirit abides among you;
                           fear not...
...and in this place
      I will give prosperity,
      says the LORD of hosts.

                            Haggai 2. 4-5, 9

(My responsibility is
  to be faithful to God in my work
                 and in my walk.
God directs the outcome.
The path of obedience is paved
   with blessings of every shape
          and in unexpected places.
The path of faithfulness
        always provides for others,
   bearing fruit even for those
                        I will never know.)
