Faith and trust are virtually synonymous. Although many people do not consider themselves to be full of faith, they must recognize that everyone trusts a variety of people and things to varying degrees. It has been said that faith is only as good as the object in which you place it. Being a person whom you knew well, you could be confident that he would do as he had promised. This would be well-placed faith.
Life is lived by faith.
Everyone has faith that relates to the ultimate questions about God, meaning in life, and eternity. When faith is seen in this light, it becomes important to know whether your faith is based on truth and placed in an object worthy of your trust. One trip down the water slide was good because it made me think about the foundation for faith. A second trip down would not demonstrate faith, although it would demonstrate another characteristic, insanity.
