FAITH
Faith means being grasped by a power that is
greater than we are, a power that shakes
us and turns us, and transforms and
heals us. To surrender to this
power is faith.
Paul Tillich
We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all the saints the faith and love that spring from the hope that is stored up for you in heaven and that you have already heard about in the word of truth.

1 Peter 1:7 - 9For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.
