Just BecauseJust because I am a christian, it doesn't mean I sayThat I am far better than you now or any other day Because you see it is quite the reverse, To be happy in my life, I must put Jesus first I need Him because I am weak To please I need to be more meek Pride in me is not a good trait I need Jesus to keep me straight Alas, I still make lots of mistakes Because of my nature and I find it hard to wait You see, it is still hard to follow the Lord Probably, the hardest job I have had of all I will never go back to who I was before That person was timid, scared and had so many flaws Since Jesus came into my life He has given me the dreams that I had and I thrive I am not finished, in the bible, God says There is allot more to be done, His way So I walk out in faith, sometimes not sure where it will lead But with Jesus at the helm, I can be very sure indeed So my friends do not knock-back us christians We are no better or worse than you We make mistakes and say the wrong things too It is our faith in the Lord that gives up hope for all things I gave my life freely over to the Lord Because I could not make it without going overboard I had secrets and sin I could never reveal Jesus forgave and freed me and I was able to heal I have grown and got confidence where there wasn't any The Lord does take away sin, which was my enemy Although my tale is short for these twelve years I have had allot going on over this time to bare Jesus does not come in to take over your life He is a gentleman and only enters when you invite It is your choice whether you accept or not I pray you will at least take this first step Amanda Martin-Shaver March 2000
