עִנְיַן מַה שֶּׁעִקַּר שְׁלֵמוּת אֱמוּנַת חֲכָמִים הוּא לְהִתְחַזֵּק כָּל כָּךְ עַד שֶׁיַּאֲמִין גַּם בְּעַצְמוֹ כִּי בְּגדֶל כּחַ צִדְקָתָם שֶׁל הַצַּדִּיקֵי אֱמֶת יַעֲלוּ גַּם אוֹתוֹ מַעְלָה מַעְלָה, וּלְעֵת עַתָּה גַּם הַהִתְקָרְבוּת בְּעַצְמוֹ שֶׁמִּתְקָרֵב אֲלֵיהֶם וּמַאֲמִין בָּהֶם הוּא טוֹב וְיָקָר מְאד. וְעִקַּר הָאֱמוּנָה הוּא בַּמֶּה שֶּׁאֵין מְבִינִים בַּשֵּׂכֶל כַּיָּדוּעַ, וּכְמוֹ כֵן גַּם בְּעִנְיַן זֶה אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁלְּפִי שִׂכְלוֹ וִידִיעָתוֹ הוּא רָחוֹק עֲדַיִן מְאד מֵהַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ, אַף עַל פִּי כֵן צָרִיךְ לְהַאֲמִין בֶּאֱמוּנָה כִּי בְּוַדַּאי גַּם מְעַט נְקֻדּוֹתָיו הַטּוֹבִים יְקָרִים מְאד בְּעֵינֵי הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ [עַיֵּן אֱמוּנָה אוֹת קנ"ה]

Regarding the matter of how the essential wholeness of faith in the sages is to strengthen oneself to the degree of believing even regarding oneself — that through the great power of the righteousness of the true Tzadikim, he too will be lifted higher and higher. And for now, even the very drawing close itself — that he draws close to them and believes in them — is very good and precious. And the essential faith is in that which one does not understand with the intellect — and so too in this matter: even though according to his intellect and knowledge he is still very far from Hashem — even so one must believe with faith that certainly even his few good points are very precious before Hashem. See: Faith, Ois 155.
