《我是基督徒》
當我說我是基督徒時;
我並不是在叫喊著「我是得救的」;
而是在低聲的說「我曾經迷失過,所以我選擇了這條路 ;
當我說我是基督徒時;
並不是因為我覺得比你高一等 ;
而是承認我一直在蹣跚而行 ;所以我需要一位生命中的嚮導;
當我說我是基督徒時 ;
我並不是在顯示自己很強壯;
而是在承認自己的軟弱; 並禱告尋求繼續前進的力量;
當我說我是基督徒時 ;
我並不是在吹噓我的成功;
而是在承認自己的失敗; 並且沒有能力償還所背負的債;
當我說我是基督徒時 ;
我並不是在自我宣稱我是完美的;
而是讓你看到我生命中的瑕疵是這麼的明顯 ;但主相信我是有價值的;
當我說我是基督徒時;
我還是會感到痛如針剌 ; 但我有主來分擔我的心痛;
所以我會繼續尋求祂的名 ;
當我說我是基督徒時 ;
我並不是在評價你 ; 因為我沒有那樣的權柄 ;
我只知道我是被愛著的。
《I'm AChristian》
by Maya Angelou
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm cleanlivin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."
When I say..... "I am aChristian"
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!
