Creed

I believe in God the Father
Almighty Maker of Heaven and Maker of Earth
And in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, our Lord
He was conceived by the Holy Spirit
Born of the virgin Mary
Suffered under Pontius Pilate
He was crucified and dead and buried

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man

I believe that He who suffered was crucified, buried, and dead
He descended into hell and on the third day, rose again
He ascended into Heaven where He sits at God's mighty right hand
I believe that He's returning
To judge the quick and the dead of the sons of men

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man

I believe it, I believe it
I believe it
I believe it, I believe it

I believe in God the Father
Almighty Maker of Heaven and Maker of Earth
And in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, our Lord
I believe in the Holy Spirit
One Holy Church
The communion of Saints
The forgiveness of sin
I believe in the resurrection
I believe in a life that never ends

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
I did not make it, no it is making me
I said I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and
not the invention of any man

I believe it, I believe
I believe it, I believe
I believe it, I believe it
I believe it, I believe it
I believe it, I believe it
I believe it

Fourth of July

Happy Fourth Everyone!

I feel so blessed to live in a country that has offered the freedoms that we get to enjoy today. I feel as though sometimes as Americans we forget what brought us to this point. First, all glory goes to God. Without Him, we would not be here right now. Lets never forget that. Second, thanks to the founding fathers and soldiers who risked their lives to stand up against tyranny, we are now free.

I invite you right now to go read the Constitution and the Bill of Rights just real quick, so that you are reminded of what our founding fathers wanted for this country. Read it, you'll be surprised as to what you find in there!

Here is a link to the Constitution: http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.overview.html

Here is a link to the Bill of Rights: http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/bill_of_rights_transcript.html

Happy Fourth of July, and

God bless America!
