I believe in God - By Matt Patterson

I believe in God, 
Three in one
Father, Son, Spirit
Paradox
Mystery
Elemental

I believe in a God of Justice 
Compassion, mercy, hope
And first, a God of love 
Love personified, incarnated

I believe in God
the mother of creation
God, the father of humanity
God, the lover of us all

I believe we are called:
To activity out of passivity and apathy
By the son of God, through his actions
Calling down through history
Borne on the wings of the spirit 

I believe we are called:
To community, with each other
Through Christ the thread 
Weaving us all together 

I believe that God plays no favorites
Pulls no punches
Leaves no stone unturned 

I believe that life is hard
I believe that life is beautiful
So, I believe, does God
