I Believe...

Upon joining a writer's group
on this wonderful blog-world,
I was asked to describe my faith.
It was great fun.
Here is what I wrote.
















How Do You Describe Your Faith?


Growing, but firm.
My faith is in God the Father,
God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
I believe God is able to perform miracles,
if it fits in His plan.

I believe the Word of God as it was written,
when read in light of what the authors'
intended meanings were, and that it's infallible.
I believe God's Word is not so mysterious
that it can't be understood, but I believe
The Holy Spirit is the One who reveals it
and I must read it depending on Him
to do so. Without the Holy Spirit's help,
the Word of God cannot be understood.

I believe in the great "Catching Up" (Rapture),
but even though I see Him coming sooner
than any of us realize, I don't date the event.
I long for His coming almost too much.

I believe I have only one life, t'will soon be past,
and that only what's done for Christ will last.
I believe every soul I recruit into God's Army,
as empowered by God,
is the most crucial business I need to attend to.

I believe the Body of Christ is indispensible.
I can go anywhere and feel at home
when brothers and sisters are there.

Now for the faith to walk in all I believe in...
