"Without preservation and cultivation of the things spiritual, our material success will be as ashes in our mouths. The spirit is as much a part of a person as is the body, and it too needs nourishment-the nourishment born of faith in and devotion to a Supreme Being."
Gordon B. Hinckley ("Standing For Something" p.112)
Faith is not only something you must acquire; it is a force, both tangible and intangible that must be nourished and exercised regularly. You must not only find faith, you must use it at all times. It must be practiced.
I know that the Lord doesn't measure efforts and blessings equally. On the contrary, we will find blessings in abundance in comparison to the simple beauty of pure faith in Christ.
