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 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!



Pretty is as Pretty does... but beautiful is just plain beautiful!
