The book of Hebrews defines it as "The substance of things hoped for...". A good example of that is the coming of Spring and Spring flowers. Even though we have not seen Spring yet, we have faith that it will come and we will be able to once again smell the flowers. Faith is the confidence that Spring will come and it is just like we are already holding those flowers in our hands.
With God it is knowing that God will keep His promises. You can count on them just as if they already have happened. When God promises to be with us and Never, never leave us - believe it and count on it. When God promises us that Jesus is coming again - you can count on it and know it beyond a shadow of a doubt.
As we go through these trying times, Keep your eyes on the Lord and have FAITH that He will take care of us.
