BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTER

By Maya Angelou



'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 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

& nbsp; 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 holi er 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!

I received this from a dear online friend. I have read this before but I thought it was so nice I wanted to share it with all my beautiful friends. I hope you have a great Saturday. My Oldest daughter will be turning seventeen next week. I am so proud of her and her sister. We are going to spend the weekend shopping and doing girl things for Holly's birthday. Thanks for coming to visit. Blessings. Lisa
