Answer:

Seeing is believing

Step-by-step explanation:

  • It symbolizes how one who believes in certain aspects, can look into circumstances, hoping for best outcomes regardless the toughness of the situation.
  • Same as its to microscope which provided light to somebody who has a sight problem but believes that after putting on the microscope he or she can see through.
  • The microscope therefore symbolized the power of believing.
