Warriors of light always have a certain gleam in their eyes. They are of this world, they are part of the lives of others, and they set out on their journey with no saddlebags and no sandals.

If we will put our trust in him, if we will pray to him, if we will live worthy of his blessings, he will hear our prayers.
