We have heard the Gospel (Mark 9: 17-31) in which the Lord emphasized the fact that we must have the faith to overcome all trials and everything what happens with us.

As an example in this Gospel we see that not only the father did not have enough faith, but the disciples of Jesus Christ did not have enough faith to heal that boy...

It grows and gives the life to a new, big and beautiful plan...
