    Faith


    The Holy Spirit empowers Christians with an extraordinary confidence in God’s promises, power and presence.  Those with the gift of faith are able to take heroic stands for the future of God’s work in the Church and faith community.  Faith enables one to recognize the work God desires to be done and to act according to divine direction.  Those with this gift are able to remain steadfast in confidence that God will provide, even if faced with unsurmountable odds and obstacles.  The charism of faith involves a deep intentional prayer life, sensitivity to the will of God and complete trust in God’s providence.  They are given a special grace of trust and obedience no matter the outcome.  
     
    Faith is said to be the soil for which all other charisms are planted.  It is through faith that we seek a deeper relationship with God and open ourselves to God’s grace to become the person He created us to be.  Those with the charism of faith are given the courage to share their Christian witness. The charism of faith gives them the confidence to assist others in need, the trust that their prayers will be heard and answered and the strength to love others as they desire to be loved.
     
    All Christians are given the virtue of faith at Baptism but this is different from the charism of faith because it goes beyond the surface of what we are taught as a Christian.   It is a supernatural trust and belief in God as our Creator and guide throughout our lives, “the faith that moves mountains.” (Lk 17:6)
