My favorite passage of scripture is:

Hebrews 10:35-36: So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.

Trust in the Lord no matter what may happen to you. By ensuring our struggles and fighting to find God amidst the difficult busyness in life—our faith and trust in Him deepens. And through our confident trust in Him the Lord will help us protect our hearts from whatever painful arrows that may be shot our way.

This verse is encouragement. God is reminding us to trust Him through every difficult turn in life. This passage not only encourages and strengthens you to continue with your trust in the Lord, but to also be patient in that trust to endure what must come in life: hardship. Campers can draw hope from this passage, because they will know that many have faced difficulties and that they are not alone.
