I know, ridiculous question, right? I mean faith is…faith. It is belief in something unseen. It is…I don’t know…it’s…faith.

There are some words that we use (and sometimes abuse) but rarely do we consider with intention what it is that we are actually talking about when we toss them around. I have faith. You don’t have faith. Your faith is strong, my faith is weak. His faith is right, her faith is wrong. I lose track of the meaning of the word in the whirlwind. 
So I ask you…how do you define faith? Not a Webster’s definition or a pulled out of the Bible definition (though there’s nothing wrong with either), but a straight from the heart version of what faith (or lack of it) means to you.
