In these examples they are synonyms, with the same functional meaning.
However, "think" generally means to hold an idea in one's mind and "believe" often has a more specific meaning of "trust" or "have faith in"
I am thinking about you = I hold an image of you in my mind
I believe you = I trust you / I have faith in you
