Valentine’s Week is a great time to be talking about faithfulness! God has shown us through his word and by giving us role models what it means to be a faithful disciple of Jesus Christ and what it means to be faithful in marriage. What is faithfulness? Faithfulness: The quality of being faithful. The word 'faithful' means loyal, full of faith or trust; firmly and resolutely sticking with a person, group, cause, belief, or idea, without waver. Other words in the word-field of 'faithful' include true, constant, loyal, steadfast, devoted, staunch, and trusting.
Loyalty and faithfulness may sound like mundane, old-fashioned concepts, but research shows they are vital to emotional and physical health. Married people live longer, more productive, healthier, and happier lives, especially if their marriages are happy and monogamous. People who are married and faithful in their relationship have a big advantage. Being in a good and faithful relationship confers huge benefits on people.
Our God is faithful, trustworthy, and believable. GOD’S faithfulness to his people is a great benefit. God can be trusted to keep his promises, and we can count on him to be there for us no matter what. How often can we say this about the people in our lives or even ourselves? As we say our I LOVE YOU’S this week, let us commit to being faithful to those we say we love! This will make God smile and do our hearts good!
God loves you and so do I!
