COMMITMENT AS A CHRISTIAN
I am part of the fellowship of the unashamed.
I have Holy Spirit
My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secure.
I am finished and done with low living, sight-walking, small planning,
smooth knees, colorless dreams, tamed visions, worldly talking, cheap giving,
and dwarfed goals.
I no longer need preeminence, prosperity, position, promotion, or popularity.
I do not have to be right, first, tops, recognized, praised, regarded, or
rewarded. I now live by faith, lean
on His presence, walk by patience, am uplifted 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 Guide reliable, my mission clear.
I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back,
deluded, or delayed. I will not
give up, shut up, or let up. I will
go on until He comes, and work until He stops me.
I am a disciple of Jesus.
