“Faith is the power to focus on God the Good. . . .To exercise your faith means to direct your attention to God.
“Faith Sees: Faith perceives the possibility of the result long before there is any visible sign. Faith is the ability in you to see the condition healed, regardless of what is being manifested. Faith is your spiritual eye. It looks within and perceives the good in the midst of appearance.
“Faith Knows: Faith is more than idle hoping or believing. Faith knows the truth that God’s outpouring of [Itself] is irrepressible, infinite, and absolute. When you are consciously aware of this, your faith grows courageously and trusts God to get the best out of the worst.
“Faith is your spiritual fingers. It reaches into the spiritual realm and lifts your eyes above all material things and points to the spirit as the source of all.”
