I was introduced to the church through my parents but I had to struggle and find it on my own. In the end I learned much of my faith and found much of my strength through watching my father’s and mother’s journeys.
With faith and obedience practiced long enough, the Holy Ghost becomes a constant companion, our natures change, and endurance becomes certain.
I have always marveled that so many religions exact such revenge against dissenters. It only weakens the appeal of their faith and contradicts any claims they might have made that ‘all religions are basically the same.’
Faith is trust in ultimate meaning.
I couldn’t change by myself. I needed my faith and belief in Christ to give me the strength to break free and allow people to help me to change.
I have my work and my faith… If that’s boring to some people, I can’t tell you how much I don’t care.
I questioned the blind faith demanded by my religion, which was Islam.
Faith is the sense of life, that sense by virtue of which man does not destroy himself, but continues to live on. It is the force whereby we live.
If he have faith, the believer cannot be restrained. He betrays himself. He breaks out. He confesses and teaches this gospel to the people at the risk of life itself.
I have always been the kid who’s asked ‘Why?’ In my faith, you’re just supposed to have faith. But I was always like ‘why?’
I am not disturbed by criticism or insults. It’s all about having faith in yourself.

Christian faith is… basically about love and being loved and reconciliation. These things are so important, they’re foundational and they can transform individuals, families.
It’s silly to throw things out or label things. You know, is U2 a Christian band, or was Johnny Cash a Christian country singer? I don’t know, but they’re pretty open about their faith.
Skepticism, riddling the faith of yesterday, prepared the way for the faith of tomorrow.
My religion would be a gentle faith that believed in the sacredness of leisure. Napping as a form of prayer.
Democrats can neither control nor predict whether our GOP counterparts are really ready to play chicken with the U.S. economy. But we can assure the American people that our party takes the nation’s faith and credit seriously.
We must not sit still and look for miracles; up and doing, and the Lord will be with thee. Prayer and pains, through faith in Christ Jesus, will do anything.
It is true that one cannot always win, but one must keep working and have faith that in the future, the situation will improve.
I believe that the ‘dark night of the soul’ is a common spiritual experience. I believe, too, that the answer is continued seeking and perseverance. It helps to know that others have endured a loss of faith.
To believe only possibilities is not faith, but mere philosophy.
For modes of faith let graceless zealots fight, His can’t be wrong whose life is in the right.
