Let the Father teach you, learn from the people he brings into your lives, learn from the circumstances he puts you through, learn from the ups and the downs, and above all exercise your [[faith]] at every [[opportunity]]. The more you exercise your faith, the more you will grow in [[faith]], and the more you grow in faith, the stronger your [[connection]] to the Father is, and the stronger this connection is, the more [[peace]], [[happiness]], and contentment you will [[experience]] during this [[life]].

Are there any questions at this time?
