This I Believe
I believe in one all-powerful, all knowing, everlasting God
who created the universe. I believe there is a cause much greater than
myself and that is to serve Him. Each day, I try to put His will over
mine and live my life in a way that will bring glory to God. Although I
know, no matter how hard I try, that I can^Rt possibly follow all the
commands given in the Bible, I also believe that He will graciously
forgive me when I fail. I believe the Bible is God^Rs word and it gives
us training on how to live our lives. Included in it is that we should
love one another as well as forgive others^R wrongs. We should give
everything our best effort, as if for the Lord. I believe the Bible^Rs
teaching that Jesus Christ was God^Rs son, sent to earth to die in order
to take the punishment for our sins, and to rise again. These are only
some of the many things I believe, which are taught in the Bible. I am
fortunate enough to have parents who raised me in the Christian faith.
Growing up in the church, over the years I^Rve done things like
memorizing scripture, learning Bible stories and singing Bible songs in
such programs as AWANA and Vacation Bible School. These various teachings
gave me a great foundation to build off of. I can^Rt remember a time when
I didn^Rt believe, but my high school years were probably when I started
to actually understand the many beliefs that go along with being a
Christian. Now, I am continually growing in my faith, through attending
church as well as study groups. I enjoy still learning more and more
about the many attributes of the God of heaven and earth. Finally, I
believe that when I die here on earth, I^Rll go to heaven to live with
God for eternity.
