I Believe

========

Credo

Poet: Elias Lieberman

I believe
That there are greater things in life
Than life itself,
I believe
In climbing upward
Even when the spent and broken thing
I call my body
Cries “Halt!”
I believe
To the last breath
In the truths
Which God permits me to see,
I believe
In fighting for them;
In drawing.
If need be.
Not the bloody sword of man
Brutal with conquest
And drunk with power.
But the white sword of God,
Flaming with His truth
And healing while it slays.

I believe
In my country and her destiny.
In the great dream of her founders.
In her place among the nations.
In her ideals;
I believe
That her democracy must be protected,
Her privileges cherished.
Her freedom defended.
I believe
That, humbly before the Almighty,
But proudly before all mankind.
We must safeguard her standard.
The vision of her Washington,
The martyrdom of her Lincoln,
With the patriotic ardor
Of the minute men
And the boys in blue
Of her glorious past.
I believe
In loyalty to my country
Utter, irrevocable, inviolate.

Thou, in whose sight
A thousand years are but as yesterday
And as a watch in the night.
Help me
In my frailty
To make real
What I believe.

A Child’s Creed

Poet: Octavius Brooks Frothingham

I believe that I am a child of God,
my heavenly Father, who created me,
who preserves me,
who loves me as his child.

I believe that Jesus was
my heavenly Father’s best-beloved Son;
and that I shall be well beloved,
as he was, if I become like him.

I believe that God, and all good angels
and all good men and women, and all good children,
are helping me all the time to lead a holy life.

l believe that my faults may be corrected;
and my sins, if I repent of them sincerely,
and try to be good, will be forgiven and forgotten.

I believe that cannot be happy or good alone,
but only as others are happy and good.
l believe that we make a heaven in our homes
by our kindness and love,

l believe that I shall not die
when my body dies.
I believe that there will be a heaven hereafter
for all good children.

l believe that all children will at last become good,
and will go to heaven,
to be happy in God’s love forever.

The Nicene Creed

I believe in one God, the Father Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth and of all things
visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God,
begotten of the Father before all ages,
God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten not made,
being of one substance with the Father,
through Whom all things were made:

Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven,
was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and was made man:
Who for us, too, was crucified under Pontius Pilate, suffered, and was buried:
On the third day He rose according to the Scriptures, ascended into heaven,
and is seated on the right hand of the Father: He shall come again with glory to judge
the living and the dead, and His kingdom shall have no end.

And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of life,
Who proceeds from the Father and the Son:
Who together with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified:
Who spoke by the prophets.

And I believe one holy, Christian, and apostolic Church.
I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins,
and I look for the resurrection of the dead and life of the age to come.
Amen.

Sense Of Urgency

By Charles Jones

I believe the fires of greatness in our heart can be kept aglow only after we develop
a sense of urgency and importance for what we are doing.…
A sense of urgency is that feeling that lets you know yesterday is gone forever,
tomorrow never comes.
Today is in your hands.
It lets you know that shirking today’s task will add to wasted yesterdays and postponing today’s work
will add to tomorrow’s burden.
The sense of urgency causes you to accomplish what today sets before you.
Thank God for the sense of urgency that can change a dull, shabby existence into a sparkling life.
Right now, ask God to give you a sense of urgency.
Believe that He did, and then act accordingly.

I Believe That

Poet: Unknown

I believe—
that we don’t have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

I believe—
that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

I believe—
that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

I believe—
that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.

I believe—
that it’s taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

I believe—
that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

I believe—
that you can keep going long after you can’t.

I believe—
that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I believe—
that either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I believe—
that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place.

I believe—
that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I believe—
that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I believe—
that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

I believe—
that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down, will be the ones to help you get back up.

I believe—
that sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel.

I believe—
that just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have.

I believe—
that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated.

I believe—
that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I believe—
that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn’t stop for your grief.

I believe—
that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

I believe—
that just because two people argue, it doesn’t mean they don’t love each other. And just because they don’t argue, it doesn’t mean they do.

I believe—
that you shouldn’t be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.

I believe—
that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.

I believe—
that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don’t even know you.

I believe—
that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.

I believe—
that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

I believe—
that the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon.

There Is No Unbelief

By Elizabeth York Case

There is no unbelief;
Whoever plants a seed beneath the sod
And waits to see it push away the clod –
He trusts in God.

There is no unbelief;
Whoever says when clouds are in the sky,
“Be patient, heart; light breaketh by and by,”
Trusts the Most High.

There is no unbelief;
Whoever sees ’neath winter’s fields of snow,
The silent harvest of the future grow –
God’s power must know.

There is no unbelief;
Whoever lies down on his couch to sleep,
Content to lock each sense in slumber deep,
Knows God will keep.

There is no unbelief;
Whoever says “tomorrow,” “the unknown,”
“The future,” trusts the power alone
He dares disown.

There is no unbelief;
The heart that looks on when the eyelids close,
And dares to live when life has only woes,
God’s comfort knows.

There is no unbelief;
For thus by day and night unconsciously
The heart lives by that faith the lips deny.
God knoweth why!

Faith & Unbelief

by John Bunyan

Faith believeth the Word of God.
Unbelief questioneth the same.

Faith sees more in a promise of God to help, than all other things to hinder.
Unbelief, notwithstanding all of God’s promises, sayeth how can these things be?

Faith will help the soul to wait, though God defers to give.
Unbelief will take snuff and throw up all, if God makes any tarry.

Faith will give comfort in the midst of fear.
Unbelief causeth fears in the midst of comfort.

Faith makes the greatest burdens light.
Unbelief makes light ones unbearable and intolerably heavy.

Faith brings us near to God.
Unbelief puts us from God, when we are near to Him.

Faith puts a man under grace.
Unbelief holdeth him under wrath.

Faith purifieth the heart.
Unbelief keepeth it polluted and impure.

=========

Belief

Poet: Hazel Leas

You must believe in One who is Supreme,
You must believe in Everlasting Life,
You must believe that good is more than dream,
You must believe that peace will follow strife.
You must believe that all is for the best,
That blows that seem to hurt are meant to heal,
That unpremeditated good is blest,
Reward is made for stewardship and zeal.

For Faith is strength, and we are sore in need
Of strength to battle forward to the goal.
Belief unwavering is daily mead
That nourishes the shining, deathless Soul;
And Faith alone bestows the precious Sight
That can reveal the pathway up and Right.

Just To Believe

Poet: Unknown

Just to be tender, just to be true;
Just to be glad the whole day through;
Just to be merciful, just to be mild;
Just to be trustful as a child;
Just to be gentle and kind and sweet;
Just to be helpful with willing feet;
Just to be cheery when things go wrong;
Just to drive sadness away with a song,
Whether the hour is dark or bright;
Just to be loyal to God and right;
Just to believe that God knows best;
Just in his promise ever to rest;
Just to let love be our daily key:
This is God’s will, for you and me.
