This morning I read something that Gman wrote and it inspired me to post this once more.
Momof6 gave this poem to us back in July of last year. It really touched my heart then as it still does today. I hope it will touch your heart as well. I actually have this on my refrigerator. To remind me daily that I am nothing without Him.
It's all because of Jesus.....
God Bless you all. I hope everyone has a good day.

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
t hat 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!
