I cant remember if Ive posted this before...but I stumbled upon it again. I love it. :)


I Am A Christian

By Maya Angelou



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!

That's really immature and inappropriate of you!

Everyone has morals they passionate believe in don't knock someone else's because they don't correspond with yours...

No kudos from me x

Amen. I'm going to take it a put it in my blog if that's cool. :) I think my family would really like to see this, especially after all the trouble we're having with our church and family.

P.S. I love that you listen to your own music. :)

Jordin! You rock girl! Keep up the God work! As a sister in Christ...I love you. I watched you standing up for purity on the awards. Way to go! I'm blogging about it now and it should be up soon. And reading this blog makes me like you even more. Keep standing up for righteousness. It may not always be popular and you probably will get ridiculed and criticized for it, but keep doing it and God will bless your life tremendously.

Love ya!

So true. To many people think that just because someone is a christian that that person believe they are above all. You and any other Christian are not perfect and thats what everyone needs to know, no human is perfect...

o and im totally listening to No Air as well lol :)

Thanks for this Jordin! This week has been the toughest week for me since Amanda passed away in June. As I sat in ICU with my dad thinking of so many special memories I would find comfort in the texts and messages of many kind people and special poems and prayers. We now have taken my dad home and Hospice is helping us and we are cherishing the time we have left .... this poem is beautiful and will be source of comfort to me.
Thankyou
Your Surprise AZ friend

This is so true :)

OH! and this is my FAVORITE verse ever...im pretty sure you've seen it before :

"If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life, will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it. What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self?" -Luke 9:23-25

Its very wise, and it reminds me of you. What you did on Sunday was amazing; you took up your cross and stood up for what you believed. That's why you're my hero ;)
