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,

Yet 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, as reinforcement, with somebody who already has this wonderful understanding.
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.
