Just ME

Today I have been thinking about things. . .[image error]


I am human.


I spend 3/4 of my day irritated, and the remainder too tired to worry over what irritated me.


I search every. single. day. for more reasons to smile, than frown.


My language is not always perfect, and my actions aren’t always polite.


I beg God daily for a compassionate, forgiving spirit. . .and He sends me many opportunities to exercise it! I fail at most.


But again, I am human. I whine, judge, worry, cry, scream, and fight like everyone else. Like every one of you.


Yes. I am a Christian.


I love God with every fiber of my being and I try to be a good person, despite my inner grumblings.


But still, I sin every day. From the moment I wake, to the moment I try to sleep at night.


I can’t help it. I am a victim of my humanity. And God knows this. He loves me despite all of my evil ways.


So, remember this:


CHRISTIAN is misleading as a title.


It doesn’t mean I am perfect. It simply means that I am forgiven for my nature through the sacrifice of Jesus. I am no better than the worst of you, only my punishment has already been received by another in my stead.


You can only see my human side.


God sees the Christian.
