      Welcome to my GOOD STUFF page!

 Whatever could that  mean?  Don't you have a file on your computer labeled Good Stuff? Cause I sure do.  It contains all those neat things people send me through email.  Jokes, comments, poems, essays--you know--the Good Stuff! And, you'll see it here.  Now, I  have a place to show it! 

WHEN I SAY.........

When I say..."I'm a Christian," I'm not shouting "I'm saved!"
I'm whispering "I was lost."  That is why I chose this way.

When I say..."I'm 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'm 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'm a Christian," I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and cannot ever pay the debt.

When I say..."I'm 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'm a Christian," I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches which is why I speak His name.

When I say..."I'm a Christian," I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority, I only know I'm loved.
