UNASHAMED

I am a part of the fellowship of the unashamed

The decision has been made, the die has been cast

My names in that book, I'm a disciple of His


 

My past has been washed clean, my present makes sense, my future is secure

I am finished and done with low living, sight walking, stinted dreams, and small talking


 

I no longer need preeminence, prosperity, position, or power

I don't have to be first, right, recognized, or rewarded

The life I now live I live by faith, leaning on his presence, while laboring in his love.


 

My face is set, my mission clear, my goal is heaven,

My road is narrow, the way is tough, my companions few

I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, or delayed

I must not look back, let up, slow down, step away, or be still


 

I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,

hesitate in the presence of the adversary,

or negotiate at the table of the enemy.


 

I won't give up, I won't shut up, I won't let up

Until I've stored up, stayed up, and paid up for the cause of Christ


 

I'm a disciple of His,

I will go till he comes, give till I drop, and work till he says stop,

And when he comes for his own he will have no problem recognizing me


 

Cause I'm an unashamed soldier, in God's Army

Excellent poem.

Thanks for the e-mail earlier to remind me to periodically go to your blog. It is great to be able to keep up on what is happening with you and yours and to remind me to pray for all you are doing.

Be blessed, as always!

Hello Randall,
I was just checking out Center Points website. Pastor Kim asked my wife and I to put together info on all the missionaries that Harvestime partners with. It is a blessing to read some of your messages and what is happening with you in Iraq. We are proud to be associated with such a servant of the Lord like you. Your desire to be used by Him where ever He puts you is a real witness.

We love you and pray for you and Amy.
Be blessed,
Pat & Mayra Couture
