When I say "I am a Christian"...

by Carol Wimmer

When I say..."I am a Christian", 当我说我是基督徒时
I'm not shouting "I am saved". 我并不是在叫喊着 "我是得救的 "
I'm whispering "I get lost!" 而是在低声的说 " 我曾经迷失过 "
"That is why I chose this way." " 所以我选择了这条路"

When I say..."I am a Christian", 当我说我是基督徒时
I don't speak of this with pride. 并不是因为我觉得比你高一等
I'm confessing that I stumble 而是承认我一直在蹒跚而行
and need someone to be my guide. 所以我需要一位生命中的向导

When I say..."I am a Christian", 当我说我是基督徒时
I'm not trying to be strong. 我并不是在显示自己很强壮
I'm professing that I'm weak 而是在承认自己的软弱
and pray for strength to carry on. 并祷告寻求继续前进的力量

When I say..."I am a Christian", 当我说我是基督徒时
I'm not bragging of success. 我并不是在吹嘘我的成功
I'm admitting I have failed 而是承认自己的失败
and cannot ever pay the debt. 并且没有能力偿还所背负的债

When I say..."I am a Christian", 当我说我是基督徒时
I'm not claiming to be perfect. 我并不是在自我宣称我是完美的
my flaws are too visible 而是让你看到我生命中的瑕疵是这么的明显
but God believes I'm worth it. 但神相信我是有价值的

When I say..."I am a Christian", 当我说我是基督徒时
I still feel the sting of pain. 我还是会感到痛如针刺般
I have my share of heartaches 但我有神来分担我的心痛
which is why I seek His name. 所以我会继续寻求他的名

When I say..."I am a Christian", 当我说我是基督徒时
I do not wish to judge. 我并不是在评价你
I have no authority. 因为我没有那样的权柄
I only know I'm loved. 我只知道我是被爱着的.

Thanks!.
