While preparing for last week’s msg, I checked
up on the word “Faithful” on dictionary.com.
This was the list of definitions…
Faithful - adjective
1. strict or thorough in the performance of
duty: a faithful worker.
2. true to one's word, promises, vows, etc.
3. steady in allegiance or affection; loyal;
constant: faithful friends.
4. reliable, trusted, or believed.
5. adhering or true to fact, a standard, or an
original; accurate: a faithful account; a
faithful copy.
6. Obsolete. full of faith; believing.
The words like loyalty and being true and
consistent struck my heart.
I thought about my walk with God and
reflected on my level of loyalty to Him and
faithfulness to keep His word.
I thought about my faithfulness in the little
things, in finances and in what belongs to
other men.
I admit that there have been plenty of times
where I did not make the mark and have
failed in the area of faithfulness.
I think the msg is not just a word in season for
my members but also the word that speaks
strongly to my life. I really want to follow Him
till the very end. It is not just a decision that I
made when I was a youth. Far more than
ever, I want to be found faithful to Him all the
days of my life.
As I journey through the different phases in my
life, I will also watch over the 3Ps: Pride,
Position, Power.
It is really quite tempting to let the carnal
thoughts translate into words and actions at
times. There are some occasions that I would
feel so irritated and upset with some people
that I meet at work. The thoughts of how I
would want to scold or smack them can be
pretty enticing. (Haha honest truth…Sheryl
is not nice and patient all the time) It is
always a challenge to stay faithful to my
decision to see them through the eyes of Jesus
and help them to the best that I can. It is not
easy but I will and I want to.
I pray that I will live out the word everyday. In
all that I do, I want to become more and more
Christlike as a person.
Let me be found faithful as Your servant.
