GOD IS FAITHFUL!

GOD IS FAITHFUL!  We can't hear it enough, or say it enough.  God is faithful to do what He has promised, to be who He says He is, to perform all the things He has said He will perform.  He is not a man that He should lie but His Word is His bond. (Num 23:19  19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind.  Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?) NIV


When you think of your earthly father does faithfulness come to mind?  My father was a man who made promises.  He fully intended to follow through with every one of them but life would always get in the way. I remember being disappointed so many times that I began to realize my dad wanted to do the things he promised but his business came first; the car came first, the yard work came first, doing other things came first.

God is not man and we can always count on Him to fulfill His promises. In God's economy His faithfulness to us comes first.  Next time we gather we can finish the sentence Tom gave us on the last page of our study on God's Faithfulness.  Mine will read:  I plan to reflect God's faithfulness in my life by being faithful in what I say and what I do.  Can't wait to hear what you write!




We will meet at the Gillespie's December 4th.  I'll email instructions that week.  Blessings, Meribeth
