Fruit of Faithfulness....

Faithfulness, is an act of being loyal or being true to your word or promise. It is the 7th, fruit of Holy Spirit which, tells us to have dedication, or commitment towards the word of God. This, fruit reveals the character of a person. It, proves the measure of  love you have. Keeping up of our word, doing the work with responsibility is the faith which God expects from your and my life.

Nowadays, the faithfulness is decreasing in the society. Increase in divorces, corruption, cheating in children, employees, politics, everywhere. I, would say to have a look at dogs, who are so faithful to their master. Nature teaches us such, faithfulness. This is what God, expects from you and me.

Wherever we are placed; in a family, be faithful like Ruth. Among friends, be faithful like David and Jonathan. In money,or your resources be faithful like the servant in the parable of talents.

As, we see a parable of Talents in the Bible. A man, before going to a journey called his servants, and entrusted his property to them. To one, he gave 5talents of money, to one he gave 2talents, to another he gave 1talent, each according; to his ability. The man who got 5, earned 5 more, to the one who got 2 produced 2more and the one who got 1 dug a hole and kept it hidden.

 After a long time, when the master came he called the servants and settled account with them. The servant who was entrusted 5, gave 5 more to the master. Matt 25:21 "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things, Come and share your master's happiness!" This, shows our faithfulness to the work assigned, whatever; resources,  talents, or abilities you have received from the master of the universe, it is your duty to be loyal in that. Do, not be lazy to hold it back, or hide it. Whatever, you do in your life, do it faithfully. As if for the glory of God.

In this fruit, we have to be like 'Jesus' who lived, a life with commitment, and faithfulness. He, is faithful and true, and shows us to adhere to the commitment, we make as He, died for you and me and rose  up on the third day. Commitment between God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. As said in 2 Tim 2:13 "If we  are faithless, he will remain faithful, for He cannot disown himself".

God's, faithfulness is such as, it cannot be compared. He, knows what is best in our lives, and he is faithful enough to give it to us. Faithfulness, is the fruit which God, produces in our lives, only thing is you have to be committed, loyal, and truthful when you have submitted your life, to 'Jesus'. Stick on to your word though; troubles, and problems come and then  see the grace of God, in your life.

Friends, God wants us to be perfect, and grow in faithfulness like His Son. Hope this blog will enlighten your thoughts regarding your attitude and character in life. Please, share comment and like. God bless you.
