When I say…”I am a Christian” I’m not shouting “I am saved” I’m whispering “I was lost” That is 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 all 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 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.
