Hi All,

The other day I was blessed to read the article by Maya Angelou on Christians. This really states how we are to see ourselves, humble before our God who loves us enough to send His very best on our behalf, His Precious Son Jesus. I pray this blesses all who read and that all might come to know His love, His mercy, and His grace through Christ Jesus.

In His love,
Joan

"Christians"
by Maya Angelou

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.
