Love this!!!

I came across this poem and I LOVE it!!!!

When I say "I am a Christian"

by Carol Wimmer

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I am saved"
I'm whispering "I get lost!"
"That is why I chose this way."

When I say..."I am a Christian"
don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need someone 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 pray for strength to carry on.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
and cannot ever pay the debt.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
my flaws are too visible
but God believes I'm worth it.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain
I have my share of heartaches
which is why I seek His name.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority.
I only know I'm loved.

Ahhhhhh.......Summer Days!

Well, Chris and I are going on day 5 of being in Pensacola Beach, Florida. We're thoroughly enjoying being away from home and "relaxing". So far we've been to the beach, Margaritaville Hotel (BEAUTIFUL), ate at Hemingway's Island Grill (YUM), layed by the pool, walked a few miles in the fresh air and watched DVD after DVD in our "suite". I LOVE vacations like these, where you just relax 100%. I still can't believe I go back to work a week from Monday!!!! Where did the summer go???
