In hurting, we need.

In needing, we long.

In longing, we seek.

In seeking, we find.

In finding, we realize.

In realizing, we remember.

In remembering, we ask.

In asking, we receive.

In receiving, we know.

In knowing, we trust.

In trusting, we stand.

In standing, we imagine.

In imagining, we see.

In seeing, we redeem.

In redeeming, we heal.

In healing, we praise.

In praising, we hear.

In hearing, we anoint.

In anointing, we share.

In sharing, we assemble.

In assembling, we belong.

In belonging, we love.

In loving, we create.

In creating, we become.

In becoming, we rejoice.

In rejoicing, we abide.

In abiding, we believe.
