♥ The Wedding Gown ♥

It is truly incredible how much love one person can give and feel
Through God, He transpires this gift to us which indeed is real

A wedding is not just a beautiful bride wearing her white gown
It symbols our eternity, His bride, awaiting our kingdom and crown

And just like the ease of walking down the aisle to our groom
Our path to heaven is so simple; just believe that Jesus arose from His Tomb

He suffered and bled so that we could all be free
An act of love that only believers can see

Once we recognize this great love that is given to us all
We can hold on to our Groom’s hand and we will never fall

Together we will conquer all obstacles that come our way
By putting our faith in Him, and living life day by day

When I Say "I am a Christian."

When I say, "I am a Christian"

I'm not shouting, "I’ve been saved!"
I'm whispering, "I get lost!
That's why I chose this way".

When I say, "I am a Christian"

I don't speak with human pride
I'm confessing that I stumble -
Needing God 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 that I've failed
And cannot ever pay the debt.

When I say, "I am a Christian"

I don't think I know it all
I submit to my confusion
Asking humbly to be taught.

When I say, "I am a Christian"

I'm not claiming to be perfect
My flaws are all 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 heartache,
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
