Faith

I am a Christian.
It was not an inherited faith.
I did not become a Christian because my parents were Christians.
I did not become a Christian because I am weak, ill, or slow-witted. My faith is not a "crutch."
I certainly make no claims to be intelligent, I feel I am fairly normal in the brain department.
I did accept my God's forgiveness as a child, and at that time asked Him to be the Lord and Master of my life.
I do not claim to be a "Super Christian."
I do not claim that because of my faith, my life is perfect.
Anyone who knows me even slightly, knows my life is far from perfect!
I have not always lived my belief. I am guilty of being a hypocrite from time to time.
Christianity is not an easy form of faith.
My faith in an invisible God Has been trying and question filled. 
Yet, despite all of that, my faith is simple.
I believe God created this world in Seven days. I do not know exactly the length of those days, as I, nor anyone else, was present at that time. I do believe God is the creator of time, and thus is not held to it's constraints as humans are.
A creator can create anything to suit himself, and is completely able to change it.
I believe the Bible is the written word of God. I believe a Supreme Creator can use the mind and body of His creation, while still allowing said creation to use his or her own mind for interjection. To me, this does not make the bible invalid. I believe it is simply a fact.
I believe that Jesus Christ is the living Son of God. I believe He is the Word of God, His voice, His hands, and the reason for being able to approach Him without fear, boldly even, because of what He allowed His Son to do. 
I believe that the blood of Christ covers all sin. All Sin. even those I have not committed, all past sin, not only mine, but every single person who is willing to accept this gift. 
I believe there is nothing I can do in my own power to please my God. 
I believe that building faith takes a life time.
I believe that the Holy Spirit is God's breath living, ever present.
I believe that we can only meet God on His terms, which means accepting His gift of Jesus Christ.
I know that no matter what is happening in this world, my God will always be with me, often carrying me.


I still have struggles with my faith. I still question my God.
I believe both are acceptable to Him, because it is honest.


God is truth, there is no other.


In the next few weeks, I will be interjecting posts on a matter of topics concerning faith. I hope to hear from as many people as possible about this mysterious thing called Faith!


Have a question? I will be happy to search for the answer with you, although, I will probably be very likely to give you my opinion!


(Was that a warning??? L.O.L. Probably!)
