Who has saving power?

Many people, now it is most people, criticize faith.  Everyone has a little or a lot of "faith".   It is what motivates people.  You get up in the morning because you believe it is the right thing to do.  The power that gets you up?  Faith.
The new troll says "you believe in Christ because you were taught to believe in him and you want to".  That's not the whole truth.
Who has saving power?  Does there exist anything beyond our own measly belief that if we get up in the morning, it will be worth getting up?
Yes.  There are people who have believed that there is something else.  Some other will than one's own will is real.  They have put on awareness to pay attention and to seek out that which knows more than human perspective which is surely limited.
And many have found Christ.  The name of the son of God means YAHWEH is salvation.  In other words the power that can deliver the believer to a better condition is God.  God has the perspective that is beyond human cognition and  foresight. This knowledge of a higher perspective and interest in human affairs can be had just by entertaining the idea..  It does not require a book or certain parents.
To say that a higher power that possesses awareness does not exist because you do not realize it is what?  What's it called?
