Poem written by Ruhiyyih Khanum,
This is Faith
To walk where there is no path
To breathe where there is no air
To see where there is no light --
This is Faith.
To cry out in the silence,
The silence of night,
And hearing no echo believe
And believe again and again --
This is Faith.
To hold pebbles and see jewels
To raise sticks and see forests
To smile with weepings eyes --
This is Faith.
To say: "God, I believe" when others deny,
"I hear" when there is no answer,
"I see" though naught is seen --
This is Faith.
And the fierce love in the heart,
The savage love that cries
Hidden Thou art yet there!
Veil Thy face and mute Thy tongue
Yet I see and hear Thee, Love,
Beat me down to the bare earth,
Yet I rise and love Thee, Love!
This is Faith.
Ruhiyyih

Faith is an inner belief.
It is almost unexplainable.
It is something that can't be proven.
A concept is presented and you grasp on it to your inner core.
It even moves into the realm of power.
This Faith becomes part of you.
I am having trouble expressing what it is.

It is believing that God is who He says He is and that He will do what He has said He will do.
Of course we can put our faith in various people and things. We can believe that a person will keep his word, only to find that he or she doesn't live up to our "faith" in him or her.
