On Facebook I see this word often.
People use it to encourage others.
But my question today is
The definitions of the word BELIEVE is

Any time I sit and look at my plaque I am challenged to consider what I believe in, what words I would add.
Now what would you rather have with it?
What comes with the word believe is important, not just anything will do.
We can't just glibly say we believe in any old thing now can we?
I have a piece of word art for digital scrapbooking that says
I also have a butterfly plaque in my ensuite which says Believe in Miracles.
I know which of these I would rather choose to believe in.
Do you?

Son and Holy Spirit

Son and Holy Spirit
and
His Word, the Bible.
I'm glad I know who I believe in and that I can depend on Him and His Word.
Let's stand up and be counted for believing in
What is True and Dependable
