A few months ago I saw this post and fell in love with the words. It was apparently found in the desk of an African missionary after he was killed. I don’t know if it is true or not but I “sing” these words. This is who I am…….
“I am part of the Fellowship of the unashamed. I have the Holy Spirit’s power. The die has been cast and I’ve stepped over the line. The decision has been made. I am 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, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tamed visions, worldly talking, cheap 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 faith, lean in His presence, walk by patience, I’m uplifted by prayer and labor with power. My pace is set, my gait is fast. My goal is heaven and my road is narrow. My way is rough, my companions are few, my guide is reliable and my mission is 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 enemy, pander at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity… “
I challenge you to post this somewhere that you will see it everyday and start believing and living it.
Walking and Singing in His Mighty Grip,
