Faithful…

1 Corinthians 1:9
God is faithful

(reliable, trustworthy, and therefore ever true to His promise, and He can be depended on);

by Him you were called into companionship and participation with His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

faith·ful

–adjective

thorough in the performance of duty

true to one's word, promises, vows, etc.

steady in allegiance or affection; loyal; constant

reliable, trusted, or believed.

adhering or true to fact, a standard, or an original; accurate: a faithful account

 

No profound personal thoughts today, just overwhelmed with the faithfulness of God. 

What if He wasn’t? 

What if He was every bit as fickle and inconsistent as I can be?

He is faithful, even when I’m not. 

Steady as a rock. 

My Rock. 

So very thankful today that He is a faithful, faithful God.

  2. Nothing profound you say. And then you follow it with the question, "What if He were not faithful?" "What if He were as fickle as I?"

    I'm so grateful that HE is God, and I am not.

    I also love your gratitudes today. They made me smile.
