Catholic AnswerIt is very important to keep in mind that confirmation, like baptism, is NOT a "graduation" type ceremony - it is an occasion when God gives you grace, which ONLY becomes active when you are in a state of grace and actively living a good Christian life. In other words, it is analogous to birth - after birth you have to live your entire life, and it is on how you live your life that you will be judged at the end of your life. In the same manner, the graces of the Holy Spirit are put into you to strengthen and allow you to live out the graces originally given in Baptism, but it is NOT automatic, you actually have to live them. You will not continue anything, you will START to live these graces, and, by the grace of God, grow in them until the end of your life and judgment. Think of it like getting a swimming suit, the suit doesn't teach you how to swim, it only gives you the correct thing to wear while you are swimming, you actually have to get in the water and learn to swim, and learn to swim well. The fact that you have been confirmed is a great start to working out your salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12) but it is only a start!

Jesus used me to serve after confirmation by that now I am a sophomore in high school, affirmed by faith at the end of eighth, but I am also a pastor's daughter (that doesn't mean anything now). He used be by serving for community service with my Church, be an example at my school, (one of the best musicians and academics in the school), but I could not do that without God. I am a Lutheran for LCMS Churches so it may be a little bit different. Then it was for me.

Roman Catholic Answer.

Confirmation is necessary for the completion of baptismal grace. (Cf. Roman Ritual, Rite of Confirmation (Ordo confirmationis), Introduction 1) For "by the sacrament of Confirmation, [the baptized] are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit. Hence they are, as true witnesses of Christ, more strictly obliged to spread and defend the faith by word and deed." (Lumen Gentium; cf. Ordo confirmationis, Introduction 2) - Catechism of the Catholic Church # 1285

In other words, what specifically you will do to serve Our Blessed Lord is between Him and you, the sacrament of Confirmation gives you the grace and the strength needed to be able to serve Him however He reveals to you. But whatever that is will still have as its final end - "to spread and defend the faith by word and deed."

What does the character of confirmation do for the soul?

The Church sees it as working in conjunction with baptism. A Catholic has to be baptized first, before he can undergo confirmation. If baptism initiates a Catholic into the Church, then confirmation calls on the Holy Spirit to come more fully into the confirmant's life to make him a full, productive member of the faith. The term they often use with confirmation is that confirmants become "soldiers of God" in the rite of confirmation.

Who give us life?

God gives us eternal life, if we have faith in His son as a sacrifice for sin. 1John 5:11 - 13 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. That You May Know. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.
