Faith is about taking or bringing God and the Holy Spirit to our own self.
It is about the gift that has given by God to us when we are baptized. We were
born and existed in this world with faith to what and whom we believe in.
There are instances that are likely connected and related to what is faith within
us. The big question that is on top of the table is how faith truly made us? Is it
true to have faith? Those questions mark the huge concept about faith. I would
like to share a brief story about my faith, it is an event happened and the faith
is behind the situation. A Story of Hardships and challenges that marked the
faith of individuals.

A Story of Hardships
According to my mom, fear in God is giving our strong faith in him.
It’s not about doubts but it’s having confidence that God existed in this
world for the salvation of our sins. Indeed, being committed to God made
her stronger in faith. Trusting God with great reverence is her number
one key to make the family happier and contented. There was one event
that my mom was really amazed with God’s miracle when my grandpa
was rushed to the hospital in CDO with the fears that it will be his last
breath. However, when my mom accompanied him for the CT scan with
all the prayers and strong faith in God, miracle really had happened. My
grandpa slowly opened his eyes and my mom jumped with joy and that
was really the sign of God’s existence that he is there providing us with
all our needs.
In my dad’s experiences was an opportunity to have a job that can
sustain with all the needs of his family and God’s providence. His job is
risky and he always trust God no matter what. Faith is his only weapon
to overcome any obstacles in life. He made an agreement to God and
that is the faith that he is going to fill in onto his heart and mind.
