" I The Lord Thy God Will Take You By The Right Hand, Saying To You, Fear Not For I Am With You Always, Even Unto The End Of Time " ....................................................................... I will survive because I believe in myself No one is faster to the draw than me I have meticiously planned each aspect of my life With the expertise of an astute professional Unflustered and unfettered by anything Colossal self respect flows through my veins My God taught me as a child To love myself most of all That is the Credo I live my life by Then and only then do I remain above pain and anguish By not giving my heart away completely I retain the vital part of me That is both sacrosanct and mine alone My own sovereignty and independence Is the vital common factor That makes me who I Am And distinguishes me from the Rest Setting my essence apart In Holy Phial Untouched and pristine from human hand And keeps me in crucial communication with my Maker Clear Sacred Channel of Love Dispensed from Heaven Retrieved from Damnation To be set apart again By The One Who Is, Who Was, and is to Come Again Copyright by Peter Paton 2006

Such a credo, an encouraging lesson for all of us, Peter. It strengthens our position of self-worth. This comes at a time when there are showing signs of cracking and falling apart lives. This credo allows us to gain total self-confidence in our ability to make the right choices. Keep on bearing fruit, Peter.

Peter, your credo is your ticket to heaven, because you acknowledge it relies on the God who Created you! We cannot love others until we have learned how to love ourselves,through Him!Splendid work!

My God taught me as a child
To love myself most of all
That is the Credo I live my life by

A grand Credo, Peter - I believe that once we learn to love ourselves completely, and are satisfied with our inner selfs, we can then truly love others.

For a time, I perched myself on a flat rock, comparing my life with the Guyandotte River. Just as its tributaries replenish it daily, changing it in some small�sometimes great�degree, so have the day-to-day occurrences of life changed me. Like the ri
