I no longer need pre-eminence,
prosperity,
position,
promotions,
platitudes, or popularity. I don't have to
be right, first, tops, recognized, praised,
regarded, or rewarded. I now love by
presence, lean 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
God reliable, and 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 adversity, 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.
This was a favorite of Del Belden, our
benefactor.· It is titled
"THE GUY IN THE
GLASS:"
