This I Know -- A Guest Post by Allison Jones


A theology discussion in one of her classes made Allison Jones realize she didn't know what she believed about a certain topic. 

"I left that class feeling really confused about almost everything other than my core beliefs," she said. 

To remind herself of what she believed and that core beliefs are what really matter, she penned the poem, "This I Know." 
I asked her if I could share her poem with the Hungry for God readers, and she graciously agreed. I'm confident Allison's spiritual depth and insightful perspective will bless you, as they have me. Be sure to leave kind words for her in the comment box. 
This I Know
I don’t know Much about Theology, Or philosophy, Or ethics, Or anything really. 
But this I know: That I have believed In my heart, And confessed With my mouth, That Jesus is Lord. 
I don’t know Much about Theology, Or philosophy,Or ethics, Or anything really. 
But this I know: I have died, And my life Is hidden With Christ, Who is my life. 
I don’t know Much about Theology, Or philosophy, Or ethics, Or anything really. 
But this I know: That my Father knows me, And holds me In His hand, And no one is able To snatch me away. 
I don’t know Much about Theology, Or philosophy, Or ethics, Or anything really. 
But this I know: That my Father Is slowly but surely, Conforming me To the image Of His Son. 
I don’t know Much about Theology, Or philosophy, Or ethics, Or anything really.  
But this I know: That my Father Is working in me, To will And to work For His good pleasure. 
But this I know: That He Who testifies To these things Is coming soon. 
Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.

That's in the Bible? I've never noticed that before!
