"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Hebrews 11:1 (NIV)
"Most of us, in our desire for meaningful faith, seem to be saying to God: 'Show me, and I'll believe!' This approach never works. God has made it very clear to us, in the life and teaching of his Son Jesus, that the process must be reversed. He is saying to us: 'Believe in me, and I'll show you.'" —John Powell
