TUESDAY – Station 7: The Creed
Prepare to meditate on the Creed by saying and meditating on Psalm 119:73.
(say 7x) “Your hands made me and formed me; give me understanding according to your word.” (Ps. 119:73)
Pause at this Station and spend time meditating upon the Apostle’s Creed. Use the Creed to focus your thoughts on the nature, the character and the work of the Triune God.
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrections of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen.
If time allows and for further meditation, one can use Luther’s Meaning to the Creed in the Small Catechism
