Competitor's Creed

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 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 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 result of my efforts
must result in His glory. 

Let the competition begin.
Let the glory be God's.
