I believe that I am broken. That I am not who I was meant to be. That I am the by-product of a fallen and sinful world. that I don’t have much of anything “together.” That it's okay to say We're Not Okay.
I believe that I have been redeemed. That Jesus Christ, the One True God, gave up His Place and came to save me, came to breathe new life into my being. I believe that He is the son of Yahweh, God, and having no earthly Father, was immaculately conceived by Mary. I believe He loves me with a love beyond anything I can comprehend. That He loves me enough to die for me, to be given as a sacrifice for me. He loves you that much, too.
I believe in the Spirit of God. The Spirit that whispers quietly into my heart and gives direction to my life. The Spirit who shows me how to love and how to use my meager gifts to best serve the Kingdom.
I believe in a magnificent Creator God who formed the earth, created you and I in His image, gave us the gift of free-will, allowed us to use it against Him, and then sacrificed His Son to save us from the choice we made, if we choose to turn back to Him. A God who still speaks to us through the mystery and wonder of the beautiful world He Created for us to inhabit. A God who shows Himself in a myriad of ways, especially through His Creation: the oceans, the mountains, the trees, the flowers, the human body, the insects, the world!
I believe in the Holy Bible. That it is the inspired Word of God Himself, inerrant and infallible. That it is the most prolific way in which He speaks. That Its words are necessary sustenance for my daily life.
I believe in Grace to the fullest. That, when we choose Jesus, God no longer gives us what we deserve but instead gives us what we don’t deserve: a place with Him for eternity, more love than we could ever fathom, and a command to love others as He loves us.
I believe in the Kingdom of God. That we are called to be a part of the Kingdom NOW and that the Kingdom is going to be renewed when Jesus returns. I believe that we can choose to bring either heaven or hell to earth.
I believe this world needs Jesus and has since the beginning of time.
I believe that actions speak louder than my words.
I believe my purpose is to Love God and love others.
Look to Him. He wants you.
He is pursuing you relentlessly (Luke 15:1-7)
Listen for Him.
Ask Him to reveal Himself.
He will.
