Am I a fanatic?
Maybe...
Some may call me one.
I do not mind.
Rather, I welcome the name.
Do I consider myself to be one?
Certainly not
I do not boast,
nor should I,
about who I am.
I simply love Christ Jesus.
I accept Him as my Savior.
I simply love the truth.
Thankfully,
in loving Christ Jesus,
the truth falls into place.
I am not a fanatic.
I simply speak the truth,
and comply within,
all guidelines of the Bible.
When I live,
it is simply the Holy Spirit,
living through me.
So if you believe,
that I am a fanitic,
because I believe,
in the truth,
then by all means,
call me a fanatic,
but I must let you know,
that I am not,
so much as I am passionate.

- Comment from author about the poem: It is important to know the difference between a fanatic and being passionate about something. A fanatic is full of pride, and lets everybody know what he does. To live with passion, is to live with humility. It is always important that we choose our words very carefully when describing someone. Love the Lord. Live passionately. Persistence is key

I sense your sincerity here Dion. There will be opposition we know, from those who are 'anti'.
Better being passionate, at least to some degree, then being dull as dish-water At least you're "alive". It's tricky to tell with some folk, maybe! Me too at times, when I get into a dull state.
