Faith Begins - You Can Believe

The other day I was thinking about the universe. How incrediblt vast it is and how infinite it is, and it made me think about faith. So, I'd like to relate faith to the concept of infinity. Infinity as a theory is almost universally accepted; we accept that, once we've reached the highest number we can count, there will always be one more number after. The closest we can come to illustrating this is n+1. There's no way to really prove this; somewhere beyond the highest number that you or I have ever counted, numbers could end. But you don't believe that. Instead you choose to believe in that "+1" that we have the ability to ALWAYS make one more step into the unknown. That step you make beyond where science and math can prove is very important. It is something you need to remember that you are capable of. You need to remember that where understanding ends, faith begins. And you have the capacity to believe.
