People could have faith in anything, including but not limited to rocks, amulets, lucky charms and four leaf clovers. The positive end result of people emerging from a self destructive pattern can be attributed to a personal will to effect change not faith in something that is non-existent. The existence of the "unseen" is an assumption. Joyce Meyer's effort is not prayer based but simply another "hands on" assistance program. If prayer had any influence on the starving people of the world we could all sit home and wait for the starvation to come to and end. Joyce Meyer, aside from rambling on with myriad assumptions, raises "money" which enables the humanitarian effort, which has been achieved by many others without reference to any faith based organization.
