A good analogy is getting a loan. When a lender makes a loan with the faith that the borrower will pay him back, it is not that he is blindly handing money out because we can't objectively agree that the money will be paid back. Instead, the lender's limited reason points to trust that the borrower will repay the money. Faith in the action is not below reason by being contrary to it, but it is above reason: the lender can't know the future, but he commits to an action based on his reason from the past.
