When I Say I’m A Christian

When I say I am a Christian…

I’m not shouting I’ve been saved
I’m whispering I get lost at times
That’s why I chose this way.
When I say I am a Christian
I’m 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 praying 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
That’s why I seek God’s name.
When I say I am a Christian
I do not wish to judge
I have no authority…
I only know I’m loved.

Date : 22/07/2018 Venue : Unimed chapel Preacher  : Ohonbamu Valentine Topic  : Love and unity in Christ Text:   2 John 1vs1-6            Nowadays many christians struggle to follow the instructions Jesus made known to us as major pillar of our christanity and walk with God. The reason is because people don't really love God. Many Christians practise religion and don't live by it.       Christianity is the way of life so we live by it not practise it. If you do not  spend time with God, you cannot love him superficially. The commandment God gave us is love your neighbour as yourself.  Your love for God will make you do what your flesh is not willing to do. The love for God will make us do things he wants us to do.  For you to love him,you must know him by:    •Spending more time in fellowship with God.     • Obeying his commandments.      •Reading the Bible   ...

UCCF Holiday Diaries 2

Hello people of GOD. So I made the lon g trip from Festac (Lagos) to Ondo first thing on Thursday and that marked the end of a very short stint at home. Back to the beautiful place that is called NIEPA...and Mama Ifaka’s bread , and Porter  Gbenga  and his bullets (Please don’t ever tell him I typed this. Let this be our little secret….winks….)  I can’t say I achieved much other than eating lots of chicken and beef. You begin to wonder why GOD didn’t make eating meat a way to edify “the hidden man of our hearts”. Just think about it for a second. We would have run Satan out of business by now. Instead of praying in tongues why can’t I just eat meat???Atherosclerosis  answers my spirit.  Sad. And now I know my dream of eating meat to edification can never come to reality, one thing I  still  know that can come to pass is seeing you all fulfilling destiny.  We talked about having definite plans and structures for how our holiday pans out with Jes...
