Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Heb. 11:1
"When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you."
"When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
The flames will not set you ablaze."
For I am the Lord, your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior...
Isaiah 43:2-3
"See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands...Isaiah 49:16
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But, take heart I have overcome the world."...John 16:33
Faith is the ability to feel so sure of God, that, no matter how dark the day. There is no doubt as to the outcome. For God's people there is a Glorious future. It may be a long way off. But it is absolutely for sure. In the midst of gloom and despair have Faith.
"no eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him...1 Cor. 2:9
"Therfore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly for us is an internal glory that far out weighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." ... 2 Cor. 4:16-18
