When i say that i am a Christian ....

I am not shouting that i am clean living

i'm whispering that 

" i was lost, but now i'm found and forgiven"

I don't speak of this with pride,

I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide

I'm not trying to be strong ( because i am weak)

I'm professing i am weak and i need His strength to carry on

I'm not claiming to be perfect

My flaws are too visible, but God believes i am worth it.

I still feel the string of pain  of course,

I have my share of heartaches,so i call upon him

i'm not bragging of success

i'm admitting i have failed and need God to 

clean my mess.

When i say i'm a Christian i'm not holier than thou

I'm just a simple sinner who recieved God's good grace, somehow!
