Wh3n I Am a ChRisTiAn!!!

Try to ponder unto this words and think about ourselves...are we truely Christians??? When i read this, it really changes my mind set about who i am as a Christian...

When I say...
"I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean living.'"
I'm whispering
"I was lost,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 stumbleand 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 visibleBut,
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!

Share this with somebody who already has this understanding, as reinforcement. But more importantly, share this with those who do not have a clear understanding of what it means to be a Christian, so that the myth that Christians think they are "perfect" or "better than others" can be dispelled.
