I am a Christian

Tony36

I am a Christian

Yet

I make mistakes

I have shortcomings

I have failings

God is still working on me

 

I am a Christian

Yet

I get mad

I get sad

I have fears

I get depressed

I get lonely

God is still working on me

 

I am a Christian

I am not perfect

I have no right judging others

For I do not walk their walk

I do not know their story

I do not know their background

 

I am a Christian

Yet

I am human

    As a non-Christian I still found this absorbing - it came to me that the reverse of much of it also works for me. I am a non-Christian yet I am human. Great write Tony

      Thank You

      Makes a lot of sense - and true! Only Christ was (and is) fully human AND fully divine. Some can caught up in 'religiosity', sanctimoniousness, self-righteousness, etc. Even though they're all long words (sound impressive - ooh), it's not impressive in reality to come across such people!

        Do nt knock yourself out mate. Hundreds of thousands of christians killed each other in WW2 breaking one at least one kind of important commandment. I'm sure your God forgives you your sins for he is the god of love isn't he/she.

                Good write and very true, there is only one perfect person in our Christian heritage and all we can do is to try a be like him.
