I am a Christian


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 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!

If we could save ourselves, then we wouldn't need a Savior!

prech it sister this is so true and post it loud and proud. for every one to hear ! no one is perfect thats why we have the hevenly father on our side, we all make mistakes and we learn from them we do not live in a bubble and their for we are human.remember Rome wasn't built in a day ;-) things happen for a reason , a reason that at times may not sound clear but all we can do is keep the strong faith that is instilled in our hearts and run with it. people come and go stuff happens but your hevenly father is there for you to talk to him always and he is always in your conner even when you are hurt and down, he will guide you to do what is best for you at the time even if you dont think so. the power of his love and wisdom is higher then any one can imagine . keep the faith girl. good luck wednesday my thoughts and prayes are with you, if you need anything all you need to do is just call and ill be there wear ever you all I'll come running you got a friend in me!

Praise Him for Who He Is
Hey Everybody,

It's a brand new week! Let's just take a few minutes today to praise the Lord. No matter what is going on in your life today, are you willing to praise God for Who He is? When all is said and done, life rests on the fact that He is God Almighty. He has provided a way for us to know Him through His Son, Jesus Christ.

Today may be a horrible day for you. You may be grieving. You may be confused. You may have a spirit of dread that hangs over you because the dawning of this day means you have to complete a task you don't want to do. It could be work. It could be your marriage. Whatever is going on for you today, do you think that you could just stop and say, "I praise you, Lord God, for Who You are."

It's challenging. But the times in my life when I've chosen to do just this have given me a new perspective, a new energy, and a new optimism to press on.
