I Am A Christian



I'm a part of the fellowship of the unashamed. I have Holy Spirit power. The
dye has been cast. I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made.
I'm a disciple of His. I won't look back, let up, slow down, back away, or
be still.



My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secure. I'm
finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth
knees, colorless dreams, tamed visions, mundane talking, cheap living, and
dwarfed goals.



I no longer need pre-eminence, prosperity, position, promotions, plaudits,
or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, tops, recognized, praised,
regarded, or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk by
patience, lift by prayer, and labor by power. My face is set, my gait is
fast, my goal is heaven, my road is narrow, my way rough, my companions few,
my Guide reliable, my mission clear. I cannot be bought, compromised,
detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded or delayed. I will not flinch in
the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate
at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in
the maze of mediocrity.



I won't give up, shut up, let up, until I have stayed up, stored up, prayed
up, paid up, preached up for the cause of Christ. I am a disciple of Jesus.
I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work
till He stops me. And when He comes for His own, He will have no problems
recognizing me--my banner will be clear!!!



Written by a young African pastor: It was tacked on the wall of his house,
and found after he died as a martyr for the Gospel!



" And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by,
and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew
him." -Acts 22:20
