[I found this off a friend's blog. Just thought I'd repost it here.]

When I say…”I am a Christian” I’m not shouting “I am saved”
I’m whispering “I got lost!” “That is why I chose this way.”

When I say…”I am a Christian” don’t speak of this with pride.
I’m confessing that I stumble and need someone 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 pray for strength to carry on.

When I say…”I am a Christian” I’m not bragging of success.
I’m admitting I have failed and cannot ever pay the debt.

When I say…”I am a Christian” I’m not claiming to be perfect,
my flaws are too visible but God believes I’m worth it.

When I say…”I am a Christian” I still feel the sting of pain I have my share of heartaches
which is why I seek His name.

When I say…”I am a Christian” I do not wish to judge. I have no authority.
I only know I’m loved.
