The Latin credo means literally “I give my heart.” In addition, believe comes to us from the Old English belove, making clear that this too is meant to be heart language. To say, “I believe in Jesus Christ” is a confession of commitment, of love. Faith….is not about propositions, but about commitment. It does not mean that I intellectually subscribe to the following statements, but that I give my heart to this reality. --quote by Diana Eck, by way of Lauren Winner's GIRL MEETS GOD book
