8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Hide God's Word in our hearts through Scripture reading and memorization. Even though hard times come, we must always remember His mercies are new every morning.

So He guided them to their desired haven.

And for His wonders to the sons of men!

And praise Him at the seat of the elders.

More Precious than Gold
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born
again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from
the dead, 4 to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will
not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 who are protected by the power of God through faith
for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for
a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials, 7 so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is
perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in
praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 8 and though you have not seen Him, you love Him, and
though you do not see Him now, but believe in Him, you greatly rejoice with joy
inexpressible and full of glory, 9 obtaining as the outcome of your faith the salvation of your
souls. ~ 1 Peter 1:3-9 (NASB)
