    Paisley Abbey Abbey Herald May 2021 1 At some point in our lives, we find ourselves asking deep questions about our identity, our purpose and our mortality. The need for answers becomes more urgent the older we become and try to make sense out of our years, our relationships and our work. WHAT WE BELIEVE Christians believe that every human being is made in the image of God and is loved deeply by God. We believe that each individual is of immeasurable worth, despite our shortcomings and failings, our flaws and inadequacies. We also believe that God created us to know God in a way that is fulfilling, liberating and challenging. Throughout the ages, Gd has invited us to this life of trust and faith by showing us what kind of God he is through the beauty of creation, through the way of life (the Law) he gave to the Jews and through prophets: most particularly, Jesus of Nazareth, whose whole life and death shows us something of who God is and what God is like. The beginning of faith is to trust in this loving God who knows us more profoundly that we know ourselves. And from that initial step, a journey begins that will last a lifetime. As we travel, we believe the Holy Spirit will guide and strengthen us, leading us to discover more and more of God’s love and a place of beauty, wholeness and peace. A place of beauty, wholeness and peace within our life’s experience. That must be the dream of every human being -even if they may never consider using such words.
