I am a
Christian first and last.
I am created
in the likeness of
God Almighty
to bring Him glory.
I am a
member of Team Jesus Christ.
I wear the
colors of the cross.
I am a
Competitor now and forever.
I am made to
strive, to strain,
to stretch
and to succeed
in the arena
of competition.
I am a
Christian Competitor
and as such,
I face my challenger
with the
face of Christ.
I do not
trust in myself.
I do not
boast in my abilities
or believe
in my own strength.
I rely
solely on the power of God.
I compete
for the pleasure of
my Heavenly
Father, the honor of Christ
and the
reputation of the Holy Spirit.
My attitude
on and off
the field is
above reproach -
my conduct
beyond criticism.
Whether I am
preparing,
practicing
or playing;
I submit to
God’s authority
and those He
has put over me.
I respect my
coaches, officials,
teammates
and competitors
out of
respect for the Lord.
My body is
the temple of Jesus Christ.
I protect it
from within and without.
Nothing
enters my body that
does not
honor the Living God.
My sweat is
an offering to my Master.
My soreness
is a sacrifice to my Savior.
I give my
all – all of the time.
I do not
give up. I do not give in.
I do not
give out. I am the Lord’s warrior -
a competitor
by conviction
and a
disciple of determination.
I am
confident beyond reason
because my
confidence lies in Christ.
The results
of my efforts
must result
in His glory.
