Faith: 
Belief in God and faith in God are different. A belief is valueless if you don't test it and live by it. Belief converted into experience becomes faith. That's why the Prophet Malachi told us: "Prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

Faith, or the intuitive experience of all truth, is present in the soul. It gives birth to human hope and the desire to achieve... Ordinary human beings knows practically nothing of this intuitive faith that latent in the soul, which is the secret wellspring of all our widest hopes.
Faith means knowledge and conviction that we are made in the image of God.
Faith has to be cultivated, or rather uncovered within us. It is there but has to be brought out.
