I love this....

I was reading a post from Julee Feser, a neat adoptive mom who writes about her families adoptions. Her husband is currently over seas bring home their new 5 year old daughter. Julee has been "home alone" and this morning she posted the following. Very very neat! I love it!


"The dye has been cast. The decision has been made. I have stepped over the line. I won't look back, let up, slow down, or back away. My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future secure. I'm done with low living, sight walking, small planning, colorless dreams, tamed visions, mundane talking, cheap living and dwarfed goals: I no longer need pre-eminence, prosperity, positions, promotions or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, topes, recognized, praised, regarded or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk with patience, live by prayer and labor with power. My face is set, my goal is Heaven, my road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions are few, my Guide is 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 adversities, 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 and spoken up for the cause of Christ. I am a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ.~

I pray that I can have that faith!!
