What is faith to you

Faith! What is faith to you? There has been a lot said about faith over the years. There have been songs, books and movies written and made about faith.  However have you ever thought about what faith means to you?  How important it is to have faith? How important it is to have faith?  Some people have said they have lost all faith in humanity, in people, in love, their jobs, their friends, their spouse, the world, and even God. 
  I personally have faith in only God all these other things will let me down God never will!  Faith is crucial to have if you believe in God.  Without faith we are tossed about like a boat on the sea without a sail.  If you had faith that God would save you why don't you have faith that he will provide for you?  Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance of what is hope for, the proof of what is not seen.
The bible is full of ordinary people who  possessed great faith and whom did great things. Faith is so much more than a christian word.  With an ounce of faith and no doubt we too could do great things!  But the world has water down and polluted  our minds to the point that true faith is hard to find.  People say they have faith but they complain and bicker about their lives, the world, their job, the church and etc.  If people today had faith they would die to themselves an live for others!  Selfishness would not be in issue.  If people would have faith in God's provision there would be no need or want!  If you had faith you would not worry or stress.  If you had faith you would be obedient to what God has called you to do.  The bible tells us without faith it is impossible to please God.  Christ continually rebuked his disciples for their lack of faith during his earthly ministry. After his ascension into heaven and they receive the power of the Holy Spirit they excepted great faith even to the point of death. If you have faith in God this same Holy Spirit dwells in you!
We as a nation have lost faith in our government and in God!  If we as a nation still had faith in God I believe we would not be facing the times that we are in.  Where is your faith?  Are you one of the remnant that God choose before the foundation of the earth? God always had a remnant that he choose to carry own His will after all others turner why losing their faith.  Do you possess the faith to stand up for what you believe in no matter what you will face?to stand up for what you believe in no matter what you will face?  Do you truly have faith in God not to worry but to be content not to worry but to be content?  Have faith that God will provide? Have faith God will heal?  Have faith that God will lead you?  That he will never leave you nor forsake you?  Do you have faith he will make your paths straight?  Do you have faith that he will deliver you?do you have faith that he will deliver you?  If you have faith in God your stress in life will go away!your stress in life will go away!  You cannot live a peaceful life without having faith in God!  As a man once said " I believe, help my unbelief". So if you had faith to come to Christ as Lord and Savior have faith he is working in your life that he is and will provide for you have faith he is working in your life that he is and will provide for you. And don't forget without faith it is impossible to please God.
