What is Faith?

Hebrews 11:1 - Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

Faith is knowing that God will come through for me even when I don't understand what is going on around me. Faith is trusting him to supply my needs even when my emotions or telling me to be afraid. Faith is having the confidence to know God can even if I don't understand how he does it. I don't have to know how, I just know He will.

When I take my car to the mechanic I leave it in good faith knowing he will fix it. I don't tell him what is wrong. I tell him it is making a funny noise and expect him to find out why.  When he says, it's fixed I pay the bill and trust him. That is faith. It is when I can ask God to fix it, leave it with him, and trust him when he says it is fixed.

Lord let me trust you more than I trust my mechanic. Amen!
