Just wanted to share to you a part of my let-us-say farewell testimony to my ever dearest Y.A. Family
When I say I am a Christian...
I am not shouting that "I am clean living"
I am whispering "I was lost, but now I'm found and forgiven"
When I say I am a Christian...
I do not speak of this with pride
I am confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide
When I say I am a Christian...
I am not trying to be strong
I am professing that I am weak and need His strength to carry on
When I say I am a Christian...
I am not bragging about success
I am admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess
When I say I am a Christian...
I am not claiming to be perfect
My flaws are too invisible, 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 not holier than any of you
I am a sinner who received God's grace and made me new
If you ever think being a Christian ain't fun? Well, wooah stop right there! Are you sure on what you are saying? Or you are just saying it because you haven't really stepped into the shoes of what really is a CHRISTIAN - it's not religion, it is Who you have in you.
Want to enjoy life? Step into the life of a Christian. Yes, it is painful IF we look at it in the eyes of the World. But, if we look at it on how Christ wants us to view it. It is so worth it! :D
The shoes of a Christian may not be spic and span, but it can and it will survive the rugged roads that you will experience in life.
Enjoy life with the JOY that is coupled with it :)))
God bless everyone!
-A.R.L.
