Fruit of the Spirit 7: Faithfulness
I have been looking forward to writing about this fruit, as this is the one I pray for the most. There are so many things that are constantly vying for a person’s attention, yet my heart’s cry is, “God, help me to be faithful.” I pray to follow Him with my whole heart and not to be distracted with the things the world throws at me. He has a purpose for my life, a reason for my existence.
God is so faithful. Everything He says, He will do. He never lets me down. That is faithfulness.
Faithfulness is being a person others can depend on. A faithful person is a trustworthy one. This is a person who keeps his or her word.
God’s Word is full of instructions as to how we should live. As we grow in Him, we begin to be more faithful to live the life He requires. As we become faithful to Him, we become more faithful in life in general. That should be our goal.
