Are You a Christian?

“Are you a Christian?

Be prepared to tell me why.

I say this in love,

if you can't,

maybe you aren't.”

I read this on a friend’s Facebook page some time ago

(“Hello friend!”)

have been thinking about it ever since that day

I remember thinking of the presumption required

(or the careless choice of words, perhaps)

to even think to say such a thing as this

“Be prepared to tell me why.”

I remember thinking "How very curious"

that I was accountable to them

as if any one of us could supplant God
