WEEK IN BRIEF: 4-9 July, 2011

Quote for the Week:

Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.-Martin Luther King, Jr.

We come across many situations in life where our faith is put to test. When the road ahead is not clear or narrow we tend to step back in fear. During such times the only thing that we can do is go on no matter what. It is faith that pushes us forward when we are having difficult times and setbacks. Faith is that inner voice that steers us clear of doubt and anxiety. Listen to it whenever you feel lost in the journey of life.
