I am a part of the Fellowship of the Unashamed.
The die has been cast. The decision has been made. I have
stepped over the line.

I won’t look back, let up, slow down, back away or be
still.
My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, and my future is in God’s
hands.
I am finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning,
the bare minimum, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tamed visions, mundane
talking, frivolous living, selfish giving, and dwarfed goals.
I no longer need
preeminence, prosperity, position, promotions, applause, or popularity. I don’t
have to be right, first, the best, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded.
I now live by faith. I lean on Christ’s presence. I love with patience, live by
prayer, and labor with the power of God’s grace.
My face is set. My gate is
narrow, my goal is heaven. 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 adversity,
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 or slow up
until I have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, and spoken up for the cause of
Christ.
I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I must go till He comes, give until I drop,
speak out until all know, and work until He stops me. And when He returns for
His own, He will have no difficulty recognizing me.

My banner is clear: I am a
part of the Fellowship of the Unashamed.
