Stand up for faith

It is time to stand up! Stand up for faith!

What is Faith?

Paul writes to the Hebrews that "Faith is the Substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen."

Faith guides us to action. Without it the world would be awful depressing. We live in a time when we have to rely more and more on our Father in heaven. Christ truly brings us to the Father.

If we can believe in that and trust that sweet atonement of Christ then we have nothing to fear.

It all starts with a desire to act. A Desire to believe that there is something greater than ourselves. The prophet Alma taught to experiment with the word of God. What is the fruit of what you are learning? Does it make you a better person?

Think of the faith the woman had who just desired to touch the hem of the Savior's garment. Christ told her that her faith had made her whole.

Just think of the power that we would have if we could harness that faith. We as a group could change the world.
