Journal Entry for June 4, 2009 Mood

Christians - By Maya Angelou 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 am 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!

    AMEN!!!! This should be on a stone in front of every Church as a reminder to the attendees of church and those that have yet to attend! This is the whole point for me! Just my 'humble' opinion lol!

    Love LaVivre

    Praise God. Always uplift his name. And shout it out for the world to see that there is no shame in the love one carries for God. To seek out God is to being to know him. Amen!!

    God bless,
    L-Jay

    I love this! thanks for sharing. i have often felt that to say "I am a Christian" made others feel less than me so I don't say it very much. With this i realize that it's okay to say it and to also offer up the rest so that people understand why we can say "I am a Christian".
    Blessings,
    Charyl
