Faith
Since my Christian faith is a big part of my life and a critical factor to my success, I will be referring to biblical scriptures, Christian sermons and personal faith experiences throughout my blog. I understand that everyone is entitled to their own religious beliefs, and I respect that. I also have no intentions in discrediting and debating anyone’s faith. And while I am no expert on these topics, nor am I a saint, I do strive to live according to Christian teachings.
In addition to the “religious” aspect, I will also refer to faith as belief or absolute confidence. I strongly believe that faith, in this sense, is a requirement to succeed in all aspects of one’s life.
My position on faith can be summed up in the creed below.
A Winner’s Creed
If you think you are beaten,
you are;
If you think you dare not,
you don’t;
If you want to win,
but think you can’t,
It’s almost a cinch you won’t.
If you think you’ll lose,
you’ve lost;
For out in the world we find,
success begins with a person’s faith;
It’s all in the state of mind.
Life’s battles don’t always go
to the stronger or faster hand;
They go to the one who trusts in God
and always think “I can.”
