"When I say...'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean livin.' I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.' When I say...'I am 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 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 Christian' I'm not holier than thou, I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow."
