"For in it the righteousness of God is revealed through faith for faith; as it is written, 'The one who is righteous will live by faith.' "
Romans 1:17

I experiment every day and I put my trust in everyday life when I buy food or medication, I trust they were not adulterated. When I surrender into the hands of a doctor or an anesthetist in the operating room I trust their competence, when I take a taxi, train or plane I trust the skill of those who drive, and we could continue in this manner.
We must see our life and our path through the glasses of faith, with the vision of Christ, who shows us His love daily, who is the most competent and has the power to fulfill what He promises.
When we try to guide our life only by our reasoning or human knowledge and the results are not what we expected, we resort in a desperate way to the arms of our heavenly father, which we always find extended.
Therefore let's exercise Faith and put Jesus first.
Faith means belief, the conviction that something is true. In 1 Corinthians 15: 17 Paul tells the Corinthians that if Jesus do not rise, then their faith is inconsistent. Faith is the basis of the gospel. It is sometimes synonymous with the Christian religion. In 2 Corinthians 13: 5 Paul says to examine yourselves to see if you hold on to the faith. Equivalent to an indestructible hope, 2 Corinthians 5: 7 "we walk not depending on what we see, but by faith". Faith means total acceptance and absolute trust in what God is and in what Jesus did.
Dear brothers, let us walk with confidence that what Jesus has said is true and we should bet our time and eternity to that security.
