I'm not sure if I understand the questions, because it doesn't entirely make sense to me.
For me, when you are talking about faith in regards to my religious beliefs; it is about a trust in God and Jesus. When I'm following God, I do find that things are generally better. Of course, this can't be tested, because for any particular set of circumstances I can only choose one, and the other isn't tested to truly compare. And it's not to say, that bad things don't happen, or that the immediate outcome is always a good measure.
Sorry if this wasn't what you are asking. If so, please feel free to clarify.
