When I Say, "I am a Christian,"



by Carol Wimmer

When I say, "I am a Christian," I'm not shouting, "I've been

saved!"

I'm whispering, "I get lost! That's why I chose this
way"



When I say, "I am a Christian," I don't speak with human

pride
I'm confessing that I stumble-needing God 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 that I've failed and cannot ever
pay the debt



When I say, "I am a Christian," I don't think I know it

all
I submit to my confusion asking humbly to be taught



When I say, "I

am a Christian," I'm not claiming to be perfect

My flaws are far 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 heartache 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
