The following poem is so beautiful, special and true&#8230; As a FWS, this poem have deep personal meaning for me. Just wanted to share this today&#8230; <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

WHEN I SAY I&#8217;M A CHRISTIAN

When I say, "I am a Christian,
"I'm not shouting "I am saved
"I'm whispering, "I get lost."
That is why I chose this way.

When I say, "I am a Christian,"
I 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 am 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
That I'm loved.

Suzet,

That was beautiful! I am not a WS but I am terribly flawed. I printed this out and am going to place it on my fridge to remind myself just Who I belong to. Thank you.
