A 'Leap of Faith' occurs when you kiss goodbye to reason, and allow your intellect to be overcome with non-reason.
For example, it is estimated that over 200 million people have visited the grotto at Lourdes expecting, hoping, believing. . making that 'Leap of Faith'.
Yet even the Catholic Church only claims 68 'Miracles', which makes the 'miraculous powers' a statistical nonsense.
But the faithful don't care. . maybe they need the hope, or to believe or whatever. . they make that 'Leap of Faith'
So there is such a thing as a 'Leap of Faith' but don't put too much faith in it.

Faith is believing in something not yet seen, so in some ways all people have a measure of faith because we all believe in something which could happen. The term leap of faith may believing in something really big which seems impossible. It may be a healing which doctors would tell you is impossible but I have seen the impossible which the medical community would not think possible by one who has put their faith and belief in God.

A leap of faith must exist alongside faith. Paul experienced a leap of faith in the Bible and it must be assumed that converts to a faith must have had a leap of some sort.

Of coarse their is you do it every day in a worldly way. Just by crossing the road or getting on a bus have faith that the driver will get you from were you start to were you are going in one peace most of the time he dos but some times things go wrong. so when you have faith in God he will only give you what is good for you and not what you want in his way his time when things don't work out you can bet its down to us we ask wrongly or for selfish reasons and when we dint get what we want blame God well that's not on and some times you have to Waite for an answer or are told yes or no if you get it right you will know that's faith. yours in Jesus Christ. peter william lack.
