Now this may come as no surprise to any of you. I am not going to make it super theological, or try to use big fancy vocabulary words, or anything of the sort! I am going to state it as simply, and plainly as I can!

The greatest lesson I am learning, as I focus on the word, faithful that God has given me for this year is that God is faithful all the time, even when I am not faithful. 

I love God so much, and all I want to do is please Him and make Him happy! But it seems on some days, the harder I try, the greater, I fail.

I get up in the morning, probably similar to you, and determine to make this day better than the day before! I am going to sing His  praises! I turn on my favorite Praise music and crank up the volume! I sing out as loud as I can! I open up His Word and read it out loud feeling like I’m proclaiming His Truth over my day! I am ready to walk with Him, and talk with Him all day long! 

Then smack, it hits me, and I am thrown back Into discouragement, disappointment, frustration, and even anger. The phone rings, and something I thought I took care of yesterday, needs my attention again today. My phone dings, and it’s another reminder of a problem, I have not yet solved! My computer sends out a reminder of three things that I’ve yet to have accomplished! I feel tired, worn out and fed up! I want to give up! I feel discouraged, like no matter how hard I try, it’s never good enough. I’m fighting the feeling of complete failure, as I’m trying to figure out why I can’t even make it out the door before another catastrophe strikes me down!

In a matter of minutes, it seems like my faith is failing, it’s wobbly at best.

With the best of intentions, my faith fails!

But then I pause, I take a deep breath, and I look up! And that still small voice whispers ever so gently, “I’ve got you!”

I am reminded once again that, even when my faith fails, God is still faithful!

He is God, and I am not! Even on my best days I can never be everything I want to be. But God is the same today, yesterday, and forever! He is faithful and true, and He never waivers or fails!

2 TIMOTHY 2:13

“If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny himself.” 

TRUTH BOMB

GOD’S CHARACTER IS FAITHFUL, AND HIS FAITHFULNESS IS NOT DEPENDENT ON MINE!

Today I am praising God for His faithfulness! I am praying, and working to be faithful to Him every day in all I say, and all I do! But praise Him, His faithfulness is not dependent on mine!
