When I say I am a Christian

A friend passed on this deeply moving poem. I hope you hear the Holy Spirit's voice as you read it.BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTER'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 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 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!Blessings,
