The Christian Competitor’s Creed

Faith, Football

Written by Gerry Organ

I am a member of Team Jesus Christ. I give my all – all of the time. I do not give up. I do not give in.

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.

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.

LET THE COMPETITION BEGIN. LET THE GLORY BE GOD’S.
