Read: Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1
Reflect: Living in the Theological Virtue of Faith. Faith is the theological virtue by which we believe in God and believe all that he has said and revealed to us, and that the Holy Church proposes for our belief, because he is truth itself. By faith “man freely commits his entire self to God.” For this reason the believer seeks to know and do God’s will.
Poor human reason when it trusts in itself substitutes the strangest absurdities for the highest divine concepts.
St. John Chrysostom
Respond: God, I firmly believe that you are one God, in three Divine Persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost; I believe that your Divine Son became man and died for our sins and that He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe these and all the truths which the holy Catholic Church teaches, because you have revealed them, Who can neither deceive nor be deceived.
