Faith:

1. Confident belief in the truth, value, or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing.
2. Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence. See Synonyms at belief, trust.
3. Loyalty to a person or thing; allegiance: keeping faith with one's supporters.
4. often Faith Christianity The theological virtue defined as secure belief in God and a trusting acceptance of God's will.
5. The body of dogma of a religion: the Muslim faith.
6. A set of principles or beliefs

You may be right to have this faith- I can see how easy it would be to have it- a few more synchronicities over the year and bingo! I'm a believer! But it's also healthy and challenging to look at other ways of explaining things and there are other ways to explain these co-incidences. I'd hate to think I was joining an irrational cult! Like you say, I guess the only way to stop the questioning is experience over time...
