THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE UNASHAMED

(Written by a Rwandan martyr in 1980, the night before he was murdered for not denying Christ)

"I'm part of the Fellowship of the Unashamed. The die has been cast. I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made. I'm a disciple of Christ, and 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 visions, mundane talking, cheap living, and dwarfed goals.

I no longer need preeminence, lavish wealth, position, promotions, plaudits, or popularity. I don't have to be right, or first, or tops, or recognized, or praised, or rewarded. I live by faith, lean on His presence, walk by patience, live by prayer, and labor by the Holy Spirit's power.

My face is set. My gait is fast. My goal is Heaven. My road may be narrow, my way rough, my companions few, but my Guide is reliable and my mission is clear.

I will not be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded, or delayed.

I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice or hesitate in the presence of the adversary. I will not 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, or let 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. I must give until I drop, preach until all know, and work until He comes. And when He does come for His own, He'll have no problems recognizing me. I am part of the Fellowship of the Unashamed."

If you want to read a powerful story about the aftermath of the Rwandan genocide, read "Forgiveness Makes You Free" by Father Ubald. An amazing story on the power of forgiveness.

The right perspective and approach to life as a disciple of Christ. Thanks Thaddeus73.

Thanks- The other side certainly isn't ashamed to speak up and impose their pagan philosophy on society..So, why should Christians be so concerned about not offending anyone with our love of Christ?

No more concern for "human respect" for me...From now on, no more silence...
