Hi pauline,
I'm so thankful that you have given your life to Jesus Christ! How wonderful and totally awesome! I'm excited for you because knowing Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior is the greatest thing!
Faith is believing in the unseen. When you accepted Jesus Christ into your life, you accepted Him by faith, knowing that all of your sins were forgiven and that He will give you a new life and that you are saved. You know this by faith. You know He is with you because of faith. You can't see Him, but you know by faith He is with you and He will always be with you just as He promised.
It also means to me, trust. You trust Him to do what He says He will do. He cannot lie and everything He promises, He will do.
Just keep trusting in Him and enjoy the blessings He will give you.
Also know that in bad times, He will never leave you or forsake you. He will always give you the strength you need to get thru any obstacle. You know this by faith and trust!
God bless!

you accepted christ nearly a year ago -- it takes years to know the real faith for the people who are preaching christ and other religions.
to know that -- you have to devote yourself for years.
to me faith is a spiritual phenomenon which is gained day by day gradually as deep you go in practicing your own religion and doing good deeds to mankind.its not something i will explaint ot the people and they will understand --- but its meaning gets clear to every individual according to his\her preaching.
if you rewally want to know the feel the faith be of faith and the faith will be yours.

I think that our faith deepens as we get to know God more. Just as when we get to know someone better our trust in him/her may increase.
As we read the Bible, pray, go to church, our knowledge and awareness of God grows and our faith increase. Also, God may bring us through things that will help to strengthen our faith.
