When I say 'I am a Christian', I am not shouting that I am clean living.
I am whispering, 'I was lost, but now am found and forgiven'
When I say 'I am a Christian', I don't speak of this with pride.
I am confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say 'I am a Christian', I am not trying to be strong.
I am professing that I am weak and need His strength to carry on.
When I say 'I am a Christian', I am not bragging of success.
I am admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.
When I say 'I am a Christian', I am 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 am not holier than thou,
I am just a simple sinner who received God's good grace, somehow!
