That God made the universe. You could loosely call me an Old Earth Creationist, in that I firmly believe God did make everything, but I have no attachment to any particular theory of how He did. I am sure the Earth is much, much older than 6,000 years. I think it's likely God used evolution as a favored tool of creation, but I don't insist on it. Beyond that, I'll leave the speculation to the scientists and those who enjoy intellectual parlor games.

Er, yes it is.

Yeah but you don't know that it's true though.

And I don't know the sun is going to rise tomorrow either, but I behave as though it will.

Comparing two different things.

They're different, but they're united in this way: I trust that the sun will rise tomorrow, and I trust God. I don't have 100% certain knowledge of either, but they both work for me.

Faith 1: Being certain God exists, even though I don't have proof.
Faith 2: Trusting in God and believing His promises.

I will never be 100% on definition 1, until I meet Him face to face. But it's definition 2 that I consider important, and that I think God considers important.
