"After you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you."
1 Pet. 5:10
Peter wrote this to Christians who were being pushed out of their own towns for following Jesus. The line before it is a warning that the devil is prowling around. Then this.
He does not pretend it was not hard. He says after you have suffered. The suffering is named, not skipped.
Then four words — restore, confirm, strengthen, establish. Not one of them means putting you back the way you were.
And it is not you doing the rebuilding. Peter says God himself will do it. The same Jesus who went through death and came out the other side is the one who puts you back together, and he does not hand you back a repaired version of the old thing.
That is Restore. What comes after the fire. Rebuilt, not replaced.
The verse runs 13 inches across the back, split by a small cross. The chest carries the KAINOS lockup, small and quiet.

Care
Wash inside out, cold, with like colours. Tumble dry low. Do not iron directly on the print.
Wash this one separately at first. Garment-dyed fabric releases colour over its first several washes. Wash it alone, or with darks only, for the first few — it will transfer onto anything light, including the Dawn tee.
