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 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!
