A question most often asked of ministers is ,,How cana: liD: . aith Is trust, committment, and personal behef in" " film showings
person believe in a God he cannot see?" The answer is God. Faith is the sum total of all our hopes both for this
faith. The only way you can bridge the distance between the
dimension of time and eternity is by faith. So often people
respond, "I can't believe in what I can't see." This is
very foolish because this we do every day. We can't see
the stars that shine by day because of the brillance of our
sun, but this doesn't mean they aren't shining. We can't
see the little microscopic germ on our hands, but a micro-
scope will reveal that it is there; and it is this tiny micro-
scopic organism that usually kills us. So it is foolish to
say, 'q can't believe in that which I cannot see.Of course
we do.
God knew that we would have this problem of seeing and
reasoning. This is why He appeals to our faith. Some say,
however, that they don't have any faith. Sure you do, or
you are continually worrying about your next breath, or
whether the sun will be in the sky tomorrow. You accept
these things by faith; in fact, you accept almost everything
on the basis of faith: life, health, friends, livelihood, and
etc. It is through this faith that you must reach out for God,
and when you reach out to Him by faith, you will always find
Him there.
Faith is a spiritual quality of man. This quality is in
operation In our every day life. It is a part of our nature.
The problem is that we use it in everything except our
relationship with GOd.
To have faith is to be sure of the things you hope for.
life and the world beyond. Faith gives us the evidence that
causes us to know that the spiritual world we cannot see
is really there. The Bible says that the person who comes
to God must have faith that Someone is really there and
that this Someone will hear (Heb. 11:6). Jesus put so much
stock in faith that He said, "All things are possible to the
person who believes, who has faith, who by faith bridges the
gap between time and eternity and reaches up to God."
Faith is not a blind leap into the dark. God does not ask
us to believe without pointing us in a direction. GOd does
not ask us to trust in nothing. We are ask to trust the per-
son of Jesus Christ. We are ask to believe the Bible and
accept it as a guide for our lives. We are ask to read it and
hide Rs words in our souls that we might be rightly relat-
ed to GOd. Jesus Christ we can know, for he lives here just
as we live. The Bible we can see, feel, and read for oursel-
ves.
Christianity is a religion of faith. Life must have faith
to have meaning. Without faith, hope is lost. Without hope
you cannot live in this world without anxiety, worry, and
fear. Faith can give meaning and dignity to death. We must
always hope for a better day and believe that it will come,
Believing, we must put our shoulder to the wheel, our hands
to the plow, and help make today a right kind of day.
Why not try believing? Why not try trust? Why not reach
out to God by faith? You will find Him there.

But remedies do exist.
"Certain combinations of fa-
bric finishes and fibers with
chemicals, inoluding water con-
ditions, are the keys to dis-
coloration," Mrs. Becky Culp
explained.
The clothing specialist offered
guidelines for saving discolored
garments.
--One problem chemical can
be chlorine bleach. If used on
certain resin-treated cottons,
yellowing will result.
"When this occurs, prepare a

lines by dampening and rubbing.
--Hard water also can cause
problems. In cases of extreme
hardness, it may be necessary
to add a water conditioner to the
wash and rinse cycles.
--Iron and manganese inwater
can cause brown or yellow dis-
colorations.
"When iron accumulation is
due to rusty waterpipes, letting
the water run awhlle often
solves the problem. However,
severe cases may require in-
stallation of an iron filter.
"To remove mineral disco-
lorations, use a commercial
rust remover carefully. After
treatment, latmder the garment
thoroughly," the specialist con-
cluded.

such as good fit, color and
reflectablUty -- when shop-
inn for clothes, suggests Mrs.
