Martin Luther had advice to people who believed they could please God by journeying to a sacred shrine.

As Martin Luther said, "Let anyone go on a pilgrimage who feels compelled to do so; but let him remember that God can be served a thousand times better at home by giving the money the journey would cost to his own wife and children and bearing his cross with patience."

Remember, God requires justice, mercy,

and humility - no matter where we live.
