I know my faith in Jesus Christ is a power. On my mission, is one of the biggest tools you use daily. From trying to know what your investigator needs spiritually to where you should be spending an extra 30 minutes in between appointments, you rely on your faith every day.  The great thing about faith is after you demonstrate your faith in Christ once; it becomes just a little easier the next time. You know that the Lord will provide if you’re doing all that you can.
