What is it about our faith that helps us?

When the disciples went up the mountain with Jesus, they did not know what was going to happen. Even as they were there, they did not understand what was happening. I am sure that coming to understand the change they saw in Jesus was something that happened slowly. But it would have changed them and their understanding of him forever. For us too, some moments of change can be understood as they happen, but with others it’s not until we look back that we can see that it was a turning point. At times we can see that there will be change and we can prepare, at other times it just happens. At moments of profound change, our faith can be important, but what is it about our faith that helps us?
