I am a Disciple of Jesus Christ

The Fellowship of The Unashamed
I am part of the fellowship of the unashamed. The dye has been cast. I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made. I am a disciple of Jesus Chirst. I won't look back, let up, slow down, or be still. My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, and my future is secure. I'm finished and done with low living, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tamed visions, wordly talking, cheap giving, and dwarfed goals. I no longer need pre-eminence, positions, promotions, plaudits, or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on his presence, walk with patience, am uplifted by prayer, and labor with power. My face is set, my gait is fast, and my goal is Heaven. My road is narrow, my way is rough, and my companions are few, my guide is reliable, my mission is clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, divided, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitated in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meandor in the maze of mediocrity. I won't give up, shut up, or let up, until I have I have stayed up, stored up and paid up for the cause of Chirst. I must go until he comes, give till I drop, preach till all know and work till he stops me. And when he returns for His own, He will have no problem recognizing me. My banner will be clear.
