........ Fellowship of the Unashamed

I'm part of the fellowship of the unashamed. I have Holy Ghost 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 with low-living, sight-walking, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tamed vision, chintzy giving, and dwarfed goals.

I no longer need prosperity, position, promotion, or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, tops, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by present tense, by faith, 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 is rough, my companions few, my guide reliable, my mission clear.

I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded, deceived, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of my enemy, negotiate at the table of the adversary, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity.

I won't give-up, let-up, or shut-up until I have stayed-up, stored-up, prayed-up, paid-up, and preached-up for the cause of Christ.

I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I must go 'til He comes, give 'til I drop, preach 'til all know and work 'til He stops me. And, when He comes for His own, He will not have any problem recognizing me because I will not be discouraged and I refuse to quit.

Focus on the cross

"THINGS AREN'T ALWAYS WHAT THEY SEEM"

Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family.  The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room.  Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement.  As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.  When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, "Things aren't always what they seem"
The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest.  When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears.  Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field.  The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you have let this happen?
The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused.  The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die. "Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied.
"When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it."
"Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife.  I gave him the cow instead. Things aren't always what they seem." - Author Unknown

We need to remember this in our everyday life. When life starts to become a little more than we can bear. The Bible says that everything works for the good of those who love him and are called according to his purpose. Jesus said "I will never leave you, nor forsake you". Just like our theme song, we need to remember that one day we will look back and understand it all better, by and by. God said "my ways are higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts". Let us have faith and remember, things aren't always what they seem.
