I Believe

"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16

My dear friend, PebblePie sent me this list of 'I Believe,' and I would like to share them with you.

I believe that we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

I believe that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while, and you must forgive them for that.

I believe that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

I believe that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for the rest of your life.

I believe that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you ever see them.

I believe that you can keep going long after you think can't.

I believe that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I believe that either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I believe that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion will fade, and there had better be something else to take its place.

I believe that heroes are the people who do what has to be done, when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I believe that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I believe that my best friend and I can do anything, or nothing, and have the best time.

I believe that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back on your feet.

I believe that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but I never have the right to be cruel.

I believe that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all that they have.

I believe that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had, and what you've learned from them, and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

I believe that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I believe that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we alone are responsible for who we become.

I believe that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.

I believe that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.

I believe that two people can look at the exact same thing and each see something totally different.

I believe that your life can be changed in a matter of minutes by people who don't even know you.

I believe that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.

I believe that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

I believe that the people you care about most in life are taken from you far too soon.

I believe that no matter how badly your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.

And I would like to add: I believe in God, and I believe in you.
