Creed

I dare you to think carefully about these words. They are not mine, but I think they will become mine.

I am deeply loved and graced by God.
His life is a gift to me.
My life well lived is my gift to Him.
I am determined to live the life I could never deserve from the place of His grace.
My faith is audacious, my spirit relentless.
I will not be deterred, and I will not quit, until Jesus is fully honored, and a hurting world has heard the good news.
If not me, then who?
If not here, then where?
And if not now, then when?
I am deeply loved and graced by God.
