There is enough evidence for a belief, trust and confidence that something is as the evidence indicates - but where there is not enough evidence for a 100% proof.
Much the same as the faith an honest atheist is willing to admit they hold concerning knowledge. And the same reason the atheist cannot disprove my belief, or prove their own - because faith is right in the middle of both systems.

Ok...I believe that anyone can have faith, whether it be a believer in Christ, or a Non-Believer...
Faith is something we all have to a certain extent, Some have it so strongly that they, live it, walk it, and talk it. Some just have it when they think they need it.
Faith is Just believing in something that we cannot see..
My faith is very strong, Because of my life, Now years ago, It wasnt that great, but the things, that my family and I have made it through, esp my kids, and I see how they live now, compared to others who have went through the same tragedy, I know it is all because of faith..My daughters are amazing! They had faith all along, and nothing can touch them, as far as this tragedy now..
Faith is just believing, not necceserliy in one particular thing, Just life..
Faith that the sick, can be well, Faith that the financial problems will subside, Faith that the meeting will go well...
Its all about our perspective, and how we allow our mind to think, and control us...
Think Positive, and you tend to have more faith...

Faith is believing in Jesus Christ and His death,burial and resurrection without having been an eye witness. The reward of Faith is to have you yoke of sin lifted and have the Holy Spirit confirm salvation to your spirit.

Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen. It is being able to believe in something you cannot see, and know it is there. It is the suspension of disbelief.
If you really want to know read Hebrews 11.

Faith in mine own words, eh?
Faith is to believe (beyond a reasonable doubt) in something, using whatever means necessary (science, research, meditation, etc.) to achieve a sense of security, accuracy, and authenticity with said belief... which means to believe WITH reason...
In my Judgement, faith AND reason must agree or whatever is at hand is a fallacy...
In my line of work, BLIND faith will get you killed, Chippy1080. God gave you a brain and eyes, so use them.
Knowledge is key, so seek knowledge. For knowledge is power; power is freedom; and freedom is peace...
Peace be upon you...

Faith is something inside of you. That no matter what comes your way you will get through it.

to believe, even though you may not always get your way or understand everything at once. In essence, to trust that God has a plan for me and everyone.
