When I say I'm a Christian.... Mood
Monday, November 2, 2009 | A General Update story
When I say... "I am a Christian" 
> I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'." 
> I'm whispering "I was lost, now I'm found and 
> forgiven." 

> When I say... "I am a Christian" 
> I don't speak of this with pride. 
> I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ 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 need His strength to carry on. 

> When I say... "I am a Christian" 
> I'm not bragging of success. 
> I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess. 

> When I say... "I am a Christian" 
> I'm not claiming to be perfect. My flaws are far too visible But > God 
> believes I'm worth it. 

> When I say... "I am a Christian", 
> I still feel the sting of pain. 
> I have my share of heartaches so I call upon His name. 

> When I say... "I am a Christian" 
> I'm not holier than thou. 
> I'm just a simple sinner who received God's good grace, somehow!
