Inspired by the following passage from George MacDonald’s Unspoken Sermons:

Faith is the trying of the thing that you do not see, and that you cannot be sure about, a thing that you do not see and not seeing, you have doubt about, you can yet try–that is faith; and if you are honest, that will be a great opportunity and a great help; it will start a fresh faith which you have not thought of before, and give your life a new start.
