Who Am I?

I am an ambassador for Jesus Christ. This is above everything else, no matter the cost to me. Wow, that is easier typed than lived. By the grace of God as a Christian I walk in humble obedience to God and to his word. Though the world around me seems to be growing further and further away from what God has desired for us.

Is there a time any greater than now, to fulfill my duty as a representative? Our bible, and I say our realizing that there is a real possibility that someone may read this who does not claim God, nor finds his word to be significant for them and their life. None-the-less, I believe that the word is offered to us all, though some will choose to disregard it. It's to the believer first that I owe living upright and Holy (not a popular thought)-- righteous in the eyes of God, and then to the unbeliever. My brothers and sisters in Christ need support, as well as I need the support from my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Christ no longer walks this Earth.......but the believers do. The converted, the new creatures in Christ. Who am I? I am a child of the King. I have hope for a future, and I live an abundant life today. Temptation is still alive, but greater is he that is in me, than he who is in the world. I struggle at times, and I admit this with a humble heart. I realize my own weaknesses, which helps me to rely on God that much more. Who am I? I am the called, I am one of many who strive to do right before God, for the greater cause of spreading the good news to the world. My desire is to help others realize their need for God, and then lead them to him. I know not all will believe. I know their are doubters, nay-sayers, I'm not blind to the fact that many will never follow. I believe many believe that there is a God --- but may never recognize "The" God, and believing that he is there is one thing--- choosing to live for him is another. God will never force us to live for him, he wants us to live for him out of choice. I firmly believe "To know God-- is to Love God". I can say honestly, I love God! I love his character, his consistency, his faithfulness to me, he deserves better than what I can give him. Knowing how wonderful God is--- sometimes it is painful to watch what goes on around us.

My religion is not something I can separate. It's not simply a book I can pick up, or put down at my discretion. My love for God, and the life that I live, directly reflect who I am. I am a Christian, I can't lay that down to avoid offending someone. It is who I am. I believe our relationship with God is misunderstood more often that not. Many people have walked and claimed to be Christian, and yet laid their Christianity down for others.

Who am I--- I am an imperfect human, who is a born again believer.
