Gotta Have Faith?

Whenever I am asked the question "what is faith" I go to Hebrews 11:1 - "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."

However, although the verse mentions that which we do not see, I don't believe it means the results or outcome will never be seen. I have had faith in the past that God would provide, heal, instruct, etc., and seen the results. The Bible bears this out too. Consider Sarah and Abraham's faith - "By faith Abraham, even though he was past age—and Sarah herself was barren—was enabled to become a father because he considered him faithful who had made the promise."

In fact, I just saw once again the results of my faith in God's promises, which only came about b/c I put my faith on the line.  Thanks for the word on faith, Aaron. ~mike
