What is faith? It is the confident assurance that something we want is going to happen. It is the certainty that what we hope for is waiting for us, even though we cannot see it up ahead. Hebrews 11:1-2 Living Bible (TLB)
Faith is to believe what you do not see;
the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.
Saint Augustine
Faith is not trying to believe something regardless of the evidence;
faith is daring to do something regardless of the consequences.
Sherwood Eddy
Faith is not belief without proof, but trust without reservation.
D. Elton Trueblood
The path we walk is charted by faith, not by what we see with our eyes.
2 Corinthians 5:7 The Voice (VOICE)
Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of God
whose ways you cannot understand at the time.
Oswald Chambers
He who has faith has … an inward reservoir of courage, hope, confidence, calmness, and assuring trust that all will come out well –
even though to the world it may appear to come out most badly.
B. C. Forbes
Faith consists in believing when it is beyond the power of reason to believe. Voltaire
Let everyone who is faithful pray to you while they can still look to you.
When troubles come like a flood,
they certainly won’t reach those who are faithful.
You are my hiding place. You will keep me safe from trouble.
You will surround me with songs sung by those who praise you
because you save your people.
Psalm 32:6-7 New International Reader’s Version
Faith is the strength by which a shattered world
shall emerge into the light.
Helen Keller
