Faith

Why is it that our faith is usually based on something happening to justify that faith? Why do we expect God to deliver us and that justifies our faith? Doesn't faith in Him mean that it is always there, regardless of whether it appears we are delivered or we think we are delivered? Isn't it faith in the unseen? Wouldn't your faith intensify and wouldn't you move into a closer relationship with Him if you had to be very patient and wait on the fruits of your faith?
