the fellowship of the unashamed

I am 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 go back, let up, slow down, back away or be still.
My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, and my future is secure, i'm finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth knees, colourless dreams, tamed visions, mundane talking, cheap giving 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, love with patience, live by prayer and labour with power.
My face is set, my gait is fast, 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 till i have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, paid up, and spoken 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 Jesus comes for His own, He will have no problem recognizing me, my banner is clear. i am a part of The Fellowship of the Unashamed.

thoughts of september 22

something that God said to me one of the late nights at phuket was while i was asking whether or not i should go for the missions trip in december.. anyway : [if you want to go overseas for missions trips, why not start first with those in your country? you are surrounded by people not yet saved. why spend $1000 to go overseas to share God's word when you can do it for free right where you are? if your reason for going for missions trips is truly to spread God's love then you need can spread God's love right here. missions to singapore! we're SURROUNDED by non-believers! in your class alone there are enough to last you a year! not talking about the rest of your school, teachers and even in church! our church has alot alot alot of people who just go for the sake of going i.e going cos of friends, parents, 3rd generation christians etc. but how many truly know the love of God? ] yup well thats what made me knock myself on the head with the desk three times. its like DUH. what are you doing? anyway. just wanted to share that with all the mission trippers going this december!
