I’ve been tagged by Tim Goodbody who suggests that I need to write a modern creed in 140 characters (or less).
Tim, have you read the title of this blog recently?
Here goes then:
Credo
What is there apart from this, this and this, to witness of knowing him?
Why would I choose to say something else, when it has already been said?
And so I will simply state "I believe",
Lest I create something else (which isn’t), and it goes to my head.
Aber mit der Heimat
geht man immer herum,
durch die Welt,
dort und dort
Peter Handke
No one could describe
the Word of the Father;
but when He took flesh from you, O Theotokos,
He consented to be described, and restored the fallen image to its former beauty.
We confess and proclaim our salvation in word and image.
Kontakion of the Triumph of Orthodoxy
God our Father, who from the family of your servant David raised up Joseph the carpenter to be the guardian of your incarnate Son and husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary: give us grace to follow him in faithful obedience to your commands; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him. (Hebrews 11:6, ESV)

cheers

Well, better than a poke(r) in the eye with a pointy stick…
