Some of the realest faith you’ll ever see lives in hospital hallways at 3 a.m.

The strongest things people believe tend to show up in the least impressive places. No music, no crowd, nobody being inspiring, just someone awake at three in the morning in a corridor, still there. To the person doing it, it usually feels like endurance rather than faith.

If you are the one in the hallway, you are not doing it badly because it feels like nothing. Let someone bring you coffee and sit down for ten minutes. And if you know somebody in that season, do not wait for the right words; go, stay a while, and let being there be the whole message.
