Personal Statement of Faith

I believe that we are saved through Grace and Faith alone and through the power of the Resurrection. I believe that we all suffer and that are suffering will one day be revealed through HIS glory (Romans). We may not know what HIS plans are, and that is ok. We have to trust in HIM and know that everything works for the GOOD for those that believe in HIM (Romans).
