Ânimo
O ânimo vem de Deus. Ele nos fortalece, nos encoraja e renova nossas forças. Quando o desânimo chega, as promessas de Deus nos levantam e nos impulsionam a seguir em frente.

ʻOku ou faʻa fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻia Kalaisi ʻoku ne fakamālohiʻi au.
ʻOku ou ʻilo pau ʻae meʻa ko eni, koeʻuhi ko ia kuo ne kamata ʻae ngāue lelei ʻiate kimoutolu, te ne fakahaohaoa ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ʻo Sisu Kalaisi:
He naʻe ʻikai foaki ʻe he ʻOtua kiate kitautolu ʻae laumālie ʻoe manavasiʻi; ka ko e mālohi, mo e ʻofa, mo e loto fakapotopoto.
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻOku ʻiate au ʻae ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, kuo u tuʻutuʻuni kiate kimoutolu, ko e ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ki he fiemālie, kae ʻikai ki he kovi, koeʻuhi ke foaki hoʻomou ʻamanaki kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ikuʻanga.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae kakai ʻo pehē, "Ke taʻofi ʻe he ʻOtua ke ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa mau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe; He ko Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, ko ia ia kuo ne ʻomi ʻakitautolu mo ʻetau ngaahi tamai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mei he fale fakapōpula, pea ko ia naʻa ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakaʻilonga lahi ʻi hotau ʻao, ʻo ne fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu ʻi he hala kotoa pē ʻaia naʻa tau ʻalu ai, pea ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai kotoa pē ʻaia naʻa tau ʻalu ai:
ʻAia ʻoku mou fiefia lahi ai, ka ko eni ʻi he ʻaho siʻi pe, ʻi heʻene ʻaonga ke pehē, ʻoku mou māfasia ʻi he ngaahi ʻahiʻahi lahi:
He ʻoku ou holi lahi ke mamata kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke u ʻatu kiate kimoutolu ha foaki fakalaumālie, ko e meʻa ke fakatuʻumaʻu aipē ʻakimoutolu; Koeʻuhi ke tau fiemālie fakataha mo kimoutolu, ʻi he tui pe taha ʻamoutolu mo au.
