Start With A Seed...

"Faith is both a principle and a process. It defines the path by which we build a relationship of trust with the Savior. In order for faith to develop, we must begin with a humble heart and a contrite spirit, have a strong desire to know the Lord, and then be obedient to gospel principles. In return, the Savior rewards the obedient with spiritual confirmations of their actions. As faith grows, our vision of eternity expands, which increases our capacity to meet life's challenges."

- Elder Merrill J. Bateman

Also see: Alma 32:16, 27-32

This is just a little quote I found that I think defines faith really well. There are a lot of definitions out there, but this one is my favorite. It not only defines it, but tells you what you need to have TRUE faith. Anyway, the scriptures that go with it make it that much better...but yeah. Enjoy!
