When we talk about "proof," we may be referring to different standards. In the courtroom, if you're talking about a civil trial, proof means a preponderance of evidence, kind of like a 50/50. If you're talking about at criminal trial, proof means beyond a reasonable doubt, which I analogize to a 95% certainty. By scientific methods, the probability of evolution is less than 1/(1*10^7000). That corresponds to 99% certainty of creation followed by thousands of 9s. I personally consider that kind of certainty "proof." The proof of creationism is absolutely manifest, and Job has lots of excellent verses besides the one quoted by the starter of this thread.

It's great to have faith, but I think informed faith is even better.
