My Commitment as a Christian
Found in the office of a young African pastor in Zimbabwe
"I'm a part of the fellowship of the Unashamed, I have Holy Spirit power. The die 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 and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, 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 on His presence, walk by patience, I'm uplifted by prayer, and labor in 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 reliable, my mission 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 adversary, 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, until I have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, paid up, preached up for the cause of Christ. I'm 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 He comes for his own, He will have no problem recognizing me. My banner will be clear."
Hmm...I don't think I'll ever get my preferred outfit...on my own at least....
Ninja Headband: lots and lots and /lots/ of gold
Chyaku Norisu Scarf: lots of gold
Ice Gauntlet: lots of gold *bought*
Stealth EvoBlack Top: 5550 *bought*
Fire Gauntlet: lots of gold
So, I need (lots of gold) to the fifth power.
I have: (lots of gold) to the negative factor (read: less than 10k). I have enough at the moment for the thing with an actual price....
