The priest of my parish in my city (Guayaquil, Ecuador) (for those who
don't know where is that at. It is in southamerica) taught me several
years ago, and i think is the most plaussible definition.
Faith is like when a little baby is being breastfed, he can't see, but
he knows that is his/her mother who loves him/her very much.
Or faith is like when children are learning to walk, and they walk
straight to their father or mother. Trust that their dad or mom is not
going to let them fall.
Faith is like that because I don't need to see God, I know He is there
sorrounding me, loving me, protecting me.

Martin Luther King said: Faith is taking the first step even though you
can't see the rest of the staircase

I wonder how much faith we actually have . . . scripture tells us that
with faith the size of a mustard seed we can move mountains:)

My faith tells me god placed the mountian there for a reason. Why then
would I want to move it?

Who am I to change the face of gods creation?

I have no need for faith.

It simply isn’t an important concept to me.

I’m quite content with what I can actually know.

Faith is all I got its what keeps me goin granted it ain't what most
have faith in but it works me and as long as it works for me than no one
else should give a damn


I don't need a book of written words, I don't need a statue or picture,
I don't need a building or someone in my face telling me what or how to
have faith.....it simply is within me
