Faith is inexplicable; either you have it or you don't.
An individual is drawn by their own spirit towards their maker, and when one comes of age in this life they accept God, or reject Him.(coming of age can be seven years old or seventy) Accepting Him is a faith based on the individuals spirit. From here they allow God to lead their lives; and the actions of the man or woman are the reflections of their faith.
How do you have faith in God? That is such a difficult question to answer; difficult because faith requires more than the proof agnostics,atheists, and the secular sophists, want before they bow down to God. Faith comes with the heart of the spirit you have. Then the brain and mind of your body take over for the proof that others want. Faith does not need proof, it will offer up the proof it you want it, but not until you have given your faith to God. After that I believe the Holy Spirit will mark you with the proof you need or want. Proof to what ever degree required, as little or as great as needed for your life.

I have faith in God because I can feel Him all around me.....
When I'm happy, sad, down or anything He's always there:
Like I always say:
Pretend you are being chased by a mob. They have been chasing you all day and you are exhausted, then you come to a ledge... it's a 900 ft drop off and it is 40 ft wide. You stand on the edge and look back the mob is getting closer then suddenly you hear a small voice that says jump. You are scared but have no other option... You tightly close your eyes and jump. The next thing you know you're flying.... You turn and look behind you and there stands the mob confused. They see all that is happening the evidence is all around them yet them don't understand!!!
That is what it is all about, leaving the ordinary and becoming extraordinary through Christ, because He can make us fly:

Today's society likes to call God a myth. Or they just simply don't care because its "Old Fashioned." Boring. And of course our world has started to evolve around sex and violence. Look at the movies that have been released. "Horrorfest" comes to mind, and as far as sex, turn on your TV. Even younger GIRLS are trying to be adults now. The term "Childhood" seems to become lost among them. Stress and paranoia are at a high level, due to war, and other things. Oh and homosexuality is even promoted openly when back in the day, it was taboo. Cops are being taken off the street and criminals are taking over. Now, would you think there's reason to have a faith?

Personally, I don't believe in God. My personality has always been such that I won't believe something until I see or can prove without much shadow of a doubt. I know that belief in God is about faith, but I guess I've never really explored or had the need to explore my faith in God.

Most people say that they would love to be believers if they knew it was true. Or the will ask for proof. That is what the unbelievable world is waiting for. We're scientific. We want proof before we believe.
But that is a contradiction, if there is proof there is no longer room for belief. For faith believes in that which cannot be proven.
When proof is possible, faith becomes impossible.
