When I say..."I am a Christian"
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting, "I am saved"
I'm whispering "I was lost"
That's why I chose this way.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
And need someone to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And pray for strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And cannot ever pay the debt.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are too visible
But, God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain,
I have my share of heartaches
Which is why I speak His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority.
I only know I'm loved.
Share this with somebody who already has this understanding, as reinforcement.
But more importantly, share this with those who do not have a clear understanding of what it means to be a Christian, so that the myth that Christians think they are "perfect" or "better than others" can be dispelled.
Have a Positive Life & be Blessed!
