I Am A Christian

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ,
  
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.' 
  

When I say that 'I am a Christian', I am not shouting that 'I am clean living.
  
I'm whispering 'I was lost, but 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 boasting 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 being holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner who received God's good grace, somehow!
