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 living''
 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!


 TODAY IS BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTERS DAY -
 I'm supposed to send this to BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, and you are one of them!!!

 If you share this with other women,

you will boost another woman's self esteem,
 And she will know that you care about her.
