✞ Te Waka Huia
"'Kei te mōhio hoki ahau ki ngā whakaaro e whakaaro nei ahau ki a koutou,' e ai tā Ihowā, 'he whakaaro mō te rongo mau, ehara mō te kino, kia hoatu he tūmanako ki a koutou i ō koutou rā whakamutunga. Ā tērā koutou e karanga ki ahau, ā, ka haere koutou ka īnoi ki ahau, ā, ka rongo ahau ki a koutou'".
"I will bless you with a future filled with hope - a future of success, not of suffering. You will turn back to me and ask for help, and I will answer your prayers".
Jeremiah 29: 11-12
