Random Thoughts

This is what i found in a CD that i bought a few weeks ago..i find it interesting and how true...

When i say "i am a Christian"
I am not shouting "i am clean."
I'm whispering "i was lost, now i 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'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and i need His strength to carry on.

When i say "i am a Christian"
I'm not bragging about success.
I'm admitting that 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 shares 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.

That CD you found about being a christian, should be used and available to everyone professing to be a follower of Jesus Christ. Lord knows, there are a lot of brothers and sisters that could use it as a sort of guideline to humility. Thank you so much for your blogs.
