Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
I’ve heard it said that faith isn’t the absence of doubt, but the act of clinging on despite the doubts. If faith was the assurance of things that we could see, it wouldn’t be faith. That would simply be sight. Faith is the conviction of things that aren’t always obvious to us, like God’s love, His plan, and His providence. Pain and uncertainty are potent realities that are hard to ignore, but by clinging to the Word of God and the person of Jesus, faith can exist despite everything.
