Whatever the Heart Needs
Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
1 Peter 1:8-9

2 - Reflect
Many people have the mistaken idea that everything is easier when we believe in the Lord, thinking that we use our sacred Father as an excuse. Those of us who fervently believe in the Lord and who walk His path every day, know well the trials to which God constantly subjects us in order to - justly - put our faith to the test.
Faith is not something that is acquired in the same way that something is acquired in a store and provides us with the solution to all our problems. On the contrary, faith is something that is built little by little, since it is important that this construction has solid foundations in order to prevent it from collapsing completely in the future.
Let us remember that our life in faith toward Christ follows a process of development in him. As we grow and develop as persons, we are called to glorify God. It is important to keep in mind that the growth and development of our faith requires the right environment and the right time of maturity.
We can create that environment through the study of the word, the approach to the Lord through prayer, helping in our church and in fraternal fellowship with each of our brothers. We can also rebuild that pattern of growth with small steps that will later become bigger and more solid.
