Topic: FAITHFULNESS (10/07/21)
With all the pressures day in and day out and not knowing which way to turn how am I to remain faithful? How am I suppose to keep up the proper stance?

These are all questions that we ask ourselves and then we wonder if God will forgive us for our attitudes.

The thing is that when we seem to slip in our faithfulness towards God He is forever faithful towards us.

“No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” (1 Corinthians 10:13 NIV)

Then there are those times we put added pressures on ourselves.
I know for myself that while I maybe just sitting around and watching television and feeling like I’m just not using my time wisely. Or I just keep saying things to myself that are not necessarily how God feels. Then my prayer sister in the Lord calls and here I am right back on track again. It is then that I realize that I place burdens on myself that God has not asked of me. He says I am faithful.

“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 masters happiness!’“ (Matthew 25:21 NIV)

You see He loves us so much that He will always remain faithful towards us. He cannot contradict His word. He was faithful from the beginning and remains the same today. He never changes.

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8 NIV)

I enjoyed reading this as it's so relatable.
Maybe expanding the middle points a bit - a paragraph for each? could be more impactful

Excellent teaching. Well-done!
However, ''Faithfulness'' [Topic] appears severally in the body of your good article, probably, justifiably, for emphasis. However, FW guidelines recommend otherwise. Please, check it out.

I totally get this and understand the feelings of the writer! We all encounter theses feelings and yes, it is good to remember what God asks us to do and to stay faithful to Him!
