Faithware Passages

Faithware started in 2005 when, in the midst of many challenges, we were gifted this phrase. “Hand It Over”. It is a simple phrase but those three little words of faith can be life changing. To have faith in God is to trust God and to have confidence in God. Our lives, our futures, and our plans are all in God’s hands. “HIO” reminds us to put our full and complete hope and trust in the Lord. HIO on our bracelets are a visible reminder of our hope.

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.– Hebrews 11:1

We believe prayer is one of the greatest blessings given to us. It allows us to talk to our Father anytime and anywhere, to hand over our all our burdens, to remove our anxiety and replace it with hope, faith and thanksgiving.

“Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.”– John 11:25-26

We put “HIO” on our bracelets to remind us in an instant that the Lord is as close as a prayer. We do not believe there is “power” in our bracelets, but our bracelets remind us of the power that is available to us. I once read that “our meetings with each other, and our ministry to each other, are not chance happenings. They are acts of God’s grace that give us a chance to share in God’s blessing.” We believe this and after presenting gifts of these bracelets to our friends, we decided to start Faithware and to make our bracelets available to all who might need to be reminded to “Hand It Over”.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.– Philippians 4:6-7
