I found an old post I wrote when I was 20. My heart still beats the same, for God and people, all these years later.
I Believe
I believe in Jesus Christ. That he saved me, and this whole world.
I believe in the beauty of the world. Even when you don't always look for it, beauty exists in everything.
Some people do not believe there is beauty in this world. I want to be able to be an example of that beauty and show it to as many people as I can.
I believe in forgiveness. Sometimes people do things that no one could possibly see good in. But things happen, and forgiveness must come as time passes. There is no now like this one.
Some people do not believe in forgiveness..I want to show them how amazing it is to know that it will set them free.
I believe in the good in people. No matter who you are, what you may have done, or how much you have changed..people are good. The world is filled with evil , but so many people prove to me on a daily basis that good exists, because people care, and are real. I want to be one of those people.
I believe in love, even when I don't feel it. Because I know I am loved by someone who will never stop loving me. And although as humans we suffer because of brokenness, I strive to show and be shown that Christs love can conquer all things, and heal even the deepest of wounds. Love is real..even when you don't feel it.
I believe in miracles. I have seen God's hand in my life, in the lives of others. God changes people. God changes lives. God grants miracles.
I believe in change. Change isn't always good, but if I didn't believe in it, I wouldn't be able to accept where God has placed me now. We always want to know the future..but in knowing the future we can't accept it. we have to take each day as it comes because otherwise..nothing would ever be worth living for.
I believe in 70 x 7. Matthew 18:21-22. It has set me free.
I believe in kindness..even though it isn't always returned. Sometimes this is the most difficult thing in the world.But I don't want to change ME..because of hate. Always love:) Hate will get you every time.
