Where faith is there is courage, there is fortitude, there is steadfastness and strength.... Faith bestows that sublime courage that rises superior to the troubles and disappointments of life, that acknowledges no defeat except as a step to victory that is strong to endure, patient to wait, and energetic to struggle.... Light up, then, the lamp of faith in your heart.... It will lead you safely through the mists of doubt and the black darkness of despair along the narrow, thorny ways of sickness and sorrow, and over the treacherous places of temptation and uncertainty.
