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 allI 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 far 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

Happy Thanksgiving!

Despite everything over the past week, I am grateful to have a pocket of time this morning just to sit down for my quiet time and give thanks to God for all He has given me. At times like this, it is just so easy to be distracted and suck oneself into self-pity and self-absorption in our own little world and forget about all that He has so freely given us; Food, a home, a healthy body, loved ones...things we often take for granted.
While browsing through some of my favourite Christian blogs and website this morning, I am reminded of the verse in I Thessalonians 5:18 which says,
"In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
I know that there are many mommies out there going through the same lack of sleep and adjustments as myself and I just want to say "Hang on"! Here is a little something I have been listening to this morning that I would like to share with you and hope you will be able to seek comfort in.
