What is faith? — "On Earth, As It Is In Heaven"

I tell you now, it could not be more beautifully planned. What is "faith"? Ask, and you shall receive, a range of ambiguous answers which do not help in the effort of going beyond the realm of abstract knowledge into that of practical application. We are instructed to "have faith"... Well, I would like to, but what exactly does that mean? How do you know if you have faith? How can you check? What are the symptoms? What does it feel like? We don't get as much detail on that. But, I think I have found the answer.  Not for the first time in history, of course, just for the first time in my life. I've reached a point where I believe I can provide a sort of skeleton for the practice of having faith.
