Perseverance In Faith

Faith is an entirely free gift that Eternal God makes to man
We can lose this priceless gift
As St. Paul indicated to St. Timothy
Wage the good warfare
Holding faith and a good conscience 
By rejecting conscience certain persons have made shipwreck of their faith
To live
Grow
And persevere in the faith until the end
We must nourish it with the word of Eternal God
We must beg the Lord to increase our faith
It must be
Working through charity
Abounding in hope
Rooted in the faith of the Church
