Christians

 

ByMaya Angelou   

 

"A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ that a

man should have to seek Him first to find her."

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 a 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 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! 

 

Pretty is as Pretty does...
but beautiful is just

plain beautiful!
