What is Faith for You?
During the past few months, I have been trusting my FAITH more and more. Subsequently, I decided to delve a little deeper and discover some words to go with it. Following is some of what I discovered…
What is Faith?
Following are some of the definitions of faith I discovered –
- “If you have faith in someone or something, you feel confident about their ability or goodness” ~ Collins Dictionary
- “allegiance to duty or a person” and “firm belief in something for which there is no proof” ~ Merriam-Webster
- “great trust or confidence in something or someone” ~ Cambridge Dictionary
- “faith is knowing that you’re on a team, even if you don’t know the players, if you don’t know who the players are.” ~ Quilen Blackwell (this is so my fave).
Do any of these resonate with you? If so, feel free to share below in the comments. Or is there another definition, that you like?
