What is Faith?

Faith is being satisfied with all that God is for you in Jesus.

I just heard this definition from John Piper.

It is the most profound and correct definition I have heard from Catholic or Protestant. A fair indictment, for sure, is our collective tendencies to intellectualize faith. If John Piper is correct, and I think he is, perhaps the amount of people we know (ourselves included) with faith are much smaller than we and they claim it to be.
