A confidence that blessing won't happen. For it only produces what I believe. It cannot produce what I don't believe. Be it done unto you according to your faith. A statement that the manifestation of God is based not on His willingness, His power, His plan but on my faith.
Faith is somehow a living thing, pulsating with the power of self fulfillment.
Communion with the Father, to hear His personal Word is to receive a vibrant seed, Absorbing scripture, plants the true truth in the abyss of my intricate mind and dissolves the silly conclusions of my life long impressions. It is imperative that I build my faith by deliberate actions, by the bombardment of my own soul with God's Eternal truth against the arrogance of my assessments. To be around those with faith feeds faith. Walk with a skeptic and you will starve your faith into unbelief. Yet. . . it is obedience and death that truly form and release faith.
