"He is ALWAYS Faithful"-2 Timothy 2:11-13


Have you ever wondered why God continues to love us even when we don't deserve it? I wrote and spoke on this a bit in yesterday's blog, but the question still remains to me, why does God constantly come through for me and love me and remain faithful to me, even when I am unfaithful to Him? Why is it that He is always there to hold us up even when we've committed the same sin for the Umpteenth (is that a word?) time? Time and time again, God has shown me His faithfulness and you know what I've done in return? Remained unfaithful, you know I think what we are guilty of doing sometimes is thinking nothing of sin, I mean we commit sin everyday and we throw it off as the cliche, "well we all sin everyday." My problem with that lies in the fact that I want to be faithful to God and sometimes I just have the hardest time being faithful, remaining sinless even for an hour, or praising my God when I overcome a temptation.

Isn't it great to know that God is faithful to us even when we SO don't deserve for Him to be? It blows my mind each day to know how much God loves me and how even when I turn my back on Him and remain in sin, or even when I pay Him no attention that He remains there waiting for me to come back to Him. Even when He's the last thought in my mind, I'm the first in His...crazy huh? It would be so easy for Him to just say "forget it...I'm not gonna continue to love Him when he continues to screw up all the time" but He never says that and He always promises that He will remain with us, it's a crazy thought! Just an encouragement to you...God will remain faithful to you even when you're not faithful to Him and I'll say it again...when He's the last thought on your mind, you're the first on His-Grace and Peace.

"Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him; If we endure, we will also reign with Him. If we disown Him, He will also disown us; IF WE ARE FAITHLESS, HE WILL REMAIN FAITHFUL, FOR HE CANNOT DISOWN HIMSELF."-2 Timothy 2:11-13
