Throughout life I have had many "friends". People who I thought I could trust and would be there for me through anything. As time moved on and we grew older our friendship faded and then that was it. Our friendship was over. That type of situation used to bother me. I would ask myself if there was anything wrong with me, did I cause this friendship to fall apart? But I realize that people just grow apart. Each individual has experiences in life that everyone cannot be apart of. I know that this interpretation does not make the ending of a friendship easier, but this is what I have told myself in order to deal with the fact that this person and I are no longer friends. People lose friends for so many reasons. Some reasons being good, and some bad, but either way that relationship has come to an end. Now that I am a bit older, I can count on one hand the number of friends that I have. One thing that my grandmother used to tell me was "nowadays you are lucky to have one good friend". Just because a friendship has ended doesn't meant that the world has to come to an end. It just means that one door has closed so that another one can open!
When I say..." I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I am saved" I'm whispering "I get lost" "That is why I chose this way" When I say..."I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride I'm confessing that I stumble and need someone 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 I have failed and cannot ever pay the debt 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 heartaches which is why I seek His name When I say..."I am a Christian" I do not wish to judge ...
