One must have faith, the steadfast trust in God’s promises, in order to live.
Psalm – 95:1-2,6-9

With enduring faith, we worship and acclaim the Lord our God.
2nd Reading – 2nd Timothy 1:6-8,13-14
We “stir into flame the gift of God” when we bear hardship for the Gospel.
The Holy Spirit will help us remain faithful.
