Christians
"A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ that a man should have to seek Him first to find her." - Max Lucado-
When I say... I am a Christian...I'm not shouting I'm clean livin.
When I say... I am 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 am 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 am 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 am 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 am a Christian...I still feel the sting of pain..
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.
When I say... I am a Christian...I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's grace, somehow!

I love this poem. However Maya Angelou is not the author, it was actually written by Carol Wimmer in 1988. http://www.carolwimmer.com/
The quote at the beginning of the poem came from Max Lucado
