THE ONLY ONE WHO WAS PERFECT WAS NAILED TO A CROSS.

When I say, “I am a Christian”
I’m not shouting, “I’ve been saved!”
I’m whispering, “I get lost sometimes
That’s why I chose this way”

When I say, “I am a Christian”
I don’t speak with human pride
I’m confessing that I stumble –
needing God 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 pray for strength to carry on

When I say, “I am a Christian”
I’m not bragging of success
I’m admitting that I’ve failed
and cannot ever pay the debt

When I say, “I am a Christian”
I don’t think I know it all
I submit to my confusion
asking humbly to be taught

When I say, “I am a Christian”
I’m not claiming to be perfect
My flaws are far too visible
but God believes I’m worth it

When I say, “I am a Christian”
I still feel the sting of pain
I have my share of heartache
which is why I seek God’s name

When I say, “I am a Christian”
I do not wish to judge
I have no authority
I only know I’m loved
...........He Jesus changed my life, in a big way!!!

May of 1975 was when my life changed, things I was not able to do before I now could do easily.
I truly was born again, being a Christian was never boring for me, just the opposite really.
That is now 46 years ago, difficult to believe how time flies...............
That is true for a lot Christians, I've been on that road myself.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.
I liked the poem muchly and sentiment behind it BUT ALL Christians at one time were nailed to the cross not just Jesus

I am an atheist but did a lot of study before hand
