Its is all about choices isn't it? I talk about people needing to be humble... What I didn't realise that no one can be really humble until he realises that he is proud... The same goes for myself... Do I dare say that I am humble? True humility doesn't even have to think about being humble. A truly humble person always thinks about others before himself...

Service was good today... Wasn't too late... Worship was good. Sat in front of her today... Didn't realise it until halfway through the service when I smelt her... Yes, I still recognise her smell. Hahaha... Anyway, I feel that I've been drifting away from God this week. Believe me when I say, "when you fall, you fall hard." Its not that I don't know that I can get back easily. Its just so infuriating to struggle so hard to do something that would please God and then fail again.
But Daryl... Nothing you can do will make Him love you any more or any less... But don't EVER stop trying...





When I say... "I'm a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean living"
I'm whispering "I was lost",
Now I'm found and forgiven.

When I say... "I'm a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need Christ 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 need His strength to carry on.

When I say... "I'm a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
and need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I'm a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
but, God believes I am worth it.

When I say... "I'm a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain,
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.
