I believe in God. I have faith that there is a God. I acknowledge that what I have is faith, not proof. I see that faith as a gift of God to me.

I have to question those who seem to “choose” what they believe. I don’t think one can simply elect to believe something (although one can say that they have done so). I believe faith is the result of numerous influences on one’s life (both earthly and spiritual), and upon one’s willingness to let those influences have their impact on one’s belief.

Just a meandering thought....

True faith is a gift. I have belief in God myself. But also faith is a personal choice, to make the choice to believe in God.

That is also the way i see it, i guess i have always believed in a higher power but don,t know for sure what it was.

I did not choose to believe in Christ, i started reading the Gospels to prove that Jesus was just a hippie of his day, boy did i prove myself wrong.

So if i hear some one say that they choose to believe, i wonder if what they believe in is them selves.
