I'll never be a good Christian

I will never, by any stretch, be a 'good' Christian...

I will not involve myself in the hearts of who others love.

I will not burden people with my beliefs whilst I condemn theirs.

I will not call people out in falsehood in order to promote my own self righteousness.

I will not keep to a small group of self congratulatory back slappers.

What I will do is risk...

My heart... my spirit... my reputation...

I will look at my own life before I hold up others to judgement.

Hug the untouchables.

Love the unloveable.  Who are they anyway?

You?

Me?

I will root for the underdog.

I will allow people their mistakes... I will forgive... sometimes to my own detriment.

I will walk in shoes that don't really fit in order to get a better idea...

Offer a holy kiss often.

No, I will never be a good Christian...

I don't stand against enough.
