"Fellowship of the Unashamed"

I am part of the "Fellowship of the Unashamed"
Responding to Holy Spirit.
The die has been cast.
I have stepped over the line.
The decision has been made.

I AM A DISCIPLE OF

JESUS CHRIST.

I won't look back, let up, slow down, back away, be still.
My past is redeemed,
my present has purpose,
and my future is secure.
I am finished and done with low living, sight walking,
small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams,
tame visions, mundane talking,
chintzy giving, and dwarfed goals!
I no longer need preeminence, prosperity, position,
promotions, plaudits or popularity.
I don't have to be right, first, tops, recognized, praised,
regarded or rewarded.
I now live by presence, lean by faith, love by patience,
lift by prayer and labor by power.
My pace is set,
my gait is fast, my goal is God's will,
my road is narrow, my way is rough,
my companions few,
my guide reliable, my mission clear.
I cannot be bought, compromised, deterred, lured away,
turned back, diluted or delayed.
I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,
hesitate in the presence of adversity,
negotiate for scraps at the table of the lost,
pander at the pool of popularity,
or meander in the maze of mediocrity.
I won't give up, back up,
let up, or shut up until I've
preached up, prayed up,
stored up and
stayed up for the cause of Christ.

I AM A DISCIPLE OF

JESUS CHRIST.
