And Jacob, in significant pain, replies, “I will not let you go unless you bless me” (Genesis, 32:26). God, pleased by his reply said “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome”(Genesis, 32: 28). God praised Jacob and gave him a new name, Israel, as well as a new identity. Jacob was no longer to be identified with his past as a swindler and trickster but as a man of faith blessed by
Faith is a channel of living—an assurance—that stretches from man to God, that His promises will never fail, even if sometimes we do not experience their fulfillment in our mortal existence. Endurance is standing strong in the faith of the gospel and true worship of God, in this time of trial and temptation. Patience is waiting for God to act, regardless of how long it takes and Perseverance is never giving up on our God, no matter the circumstances we may find ourselves in or the downfall we may

In the sacred mystery of the Incarnate Word, man can understand himself. Christ "reveals man to himself and makes clear his supreme calling, which is to share in the divine mystery of the life of the Trinity" (n. 13). Faith is man's obedient response to God's revelation (n. 13). By faith man accepts the truth of Christ's revelation which is guaranteed by God. Because an act of faith involves freely entrusting oneself to God and freely accepting His revelation.
The relationship between faith and science is also something I think about when looking at my worldview. I believe that faith is most important, but in order for there to be faith in creation, the scientific aspect of how things were created by God can prove that faith. As for science, I use faith as the basis of scientific knowledge. Therefore, faith must support any scientific findings and vice versa. Faith and science work together, indirectly, supporting the ideas of the world so that we may even have faith to begin

In Lara Buchak’s essay, Can It Be Rational to Have Faith? , she asserts that everyday faith statements and religious faith statements share the same attributes. She later states that in order to truly have faith, a person ceases to search for more evidence for their claim, and that having faith can be rational. Although she makes compelling arguments in favor of faith in God, this essay is more hearsay and assumption than actual fact. In this paper, you will see that looking for further evidence would constitute not having faith, but that having faith, at least in the religious sense, is irrational.
The Deuteronomist Source lived after and was familiar with the writings of the Jahwist and Elohist sources. After the Assyrians destroyed Jerusalem there were other Deuteronomist writers that edited the original text including that by the Jahwist and Elohist sources.
