An " Adopted " Statement of Faith

I have discovered an outstanding Blogger and Writer named Ann Voskamp. She is a "salt of the earth" woman who gives of her Gift freely and with excellence. I am tempted to find a little hole and crawl in it after indulging myself in this magnificent glorification of our God and Savior ! Instead, i would like to introduce you to Ann Voskamp, hoping to bless you as she surely blesses me.

This Statement of Faith  could not be more explicit and articulate and worth adopting as my own.

   One New Man                           Ephesians 3:14-15

What I Believe:
 
"I believe in Jehovah God who created the whirling galaxies, the birds soaring in the sky overhead, the endless crashing waves and all that dances within them. I believe in Father of all who knits together life, made in His very own image, in the secret quiet of our beings.
 I believe in Jesus Christ,(Yeshua Messiah) the One with no earthly Father, with the dust of this earth between His toes, and with our names etched onto the palm of His hands, right beneath the nail scars…Who now sits at the Father’s right hand making endless intercession on our behalf. I believe in the stone rolled away, in the Body being raised, in the first fruits of the dead…and us all following soon, very soon.
 I believe in the Cross as our only Hope, our only Claim, our only Savior, and our only Foundation. I believe that in the pounding surf of life we have only one thing to cling to: the feet of our Lord Jesus (Yeshua), hanging on that tree, His lifeblood flowing down, washing us whiter than snow. It’s all by His staggering grace, lest any man should boast.
 I believe in the Holy Spirit, moving, whispering, indwelling our very being. I believe in living by the Spirit, walking in the Spirit, and producing fruit in the Spirit…in the Spirit who helps us in our weakness with groanings that can’t be expressed in words.
 I believe in the infallibility of the Bible, God’s Word – a sure Word, a pure Word, the only secure Word. I believe the words on those pages are breathed from the very throne room of heaven, are the love letter penned from the heart of God; a beacon of light for stumbling feet to find sure footing on a dark path.
 I believe there is more than believing. There is living what I believe.
Thus this journal.
