FAITHFULNESS

 ARE YOU ALWAYS FAITHFUL?

 This is a hard and
also a sensitive 
question for some,
yet what is the truth
for all?

Faithfulness generally is
seen to be associated with
relationships, whether
either is faithful to the other.

Which is necessary in any
relationship. Many choose
not to be faithful and so
the relationship generally
ends when their partner 
discovers the truth of this.

Within marriage of course both
parties definitely should remain
faithful to the other. As for me
I always have remained faithful to
my wife, not only with my actions
but also with my heart and desires.

This is also for some a major
problem with faithfulness, they
remain faithful in their deeds
but not in their hearts and desires.

Is faithfulness though limited to
just relationships? 
No, we can be faithful to many
other things as well.

We can be faithful to a cause,
we can be faithful to our 
employment, we can be faithful to
a political party, their are many
things which we can be both
faithful to and unfaithful to.

We can be faithful also to the
Church which we belong to,
through our attendance and
through our continual support.

We can be faithful within
our giving to the Church
as well. We can also
be faithful in the things
which we are involved in
within the Church.

So through that, we can also
be faithful to God with the
gifts that he has given us,
whether we believe that they
are natural gifts or gifts given 
at some point within our lives by him.

We should, within our relationship
with God seek to always remain
faithful to him in
all ways.

As also we should remain faithful
to how we live in accordance with
how the bible teaches, shows
and guides us in.

As Christians, we should also seek
to remain faithful within our
lives; for those of us that
are married, God loves and
wants faithfulness within this.
To not be so is to also not to
be faithful to his plans for
our lives.

There within our lives can be
times when our faithfulness to 
God is hindered by events,
situations and troubles which
we may face.

Though one thing we remember is
that though we may at times
either be faithless or have 
limited faithfulness to 
God- he always remains 
faithful to us.

Why?
Because it is within his nature,
it is part of who he is,
and God never changes.

So let us seek to remain as
faithful as we are able to 
him, in all ways and in all 
things, in and 
through our lives.

Listening

 Do people always listen?  One thing that is certain is that people want to be heard. We all want people to listen to what we have to say, whether they are someone that we know well or not. There can of course be many different topics of conversation,  dependant upon your listeners one subject may be more interesting than another to some. But sometimes when an individual is talking, they can tell that the one they are speaking to is not really listening. It could be that they may have other things upon their minds at that time or it could be that they just are not interested in what is said. Within the Church though, can this or does this happen?  When we speak to other Christians within the Church to which we belong, we should expect them to listen. Also we should also ourselves be prepared to listen to  what people say, it may be that they have a need of either advice or just some...

Something New

 Do you try anything new?  When a thing is new, it holds interest and can catch the attention of many. Whereas, when something is not new it needs sometimes a new way of doing it, something that will catch peoples' attention once again. What new things catch your attention? This can  be different for many people, a s people have different  interests, likes and dislikes. For some it can be a new car, for others it can be a new house, or possibly  for some it could be a new job. It may also be a new type of food which you have never tasted before, or a new hobby. Perhaps a new television or computer that comes out catches your attention, o r a new film or song that has been released.  Within the Church there can be new things, but also sometimes it can appear that there has not been anything new for some time. It is of course important to bring new things and ideas into the Chu...

Freedom

Freedom in our lives. When we think of freedom what comes to mind?     Do we think of those imprisoned?  Do we think of Freedom of choice? Do we think of Freedom of speech? Do we think of Freedom in and from troubles? Do we think of Freedom from debt? Do we think of Freedom from sin? Do we think of Freedom in Christ? There are perhaps many different things that come to mind in what many would consider as our day to day living, and also within our Christian walk. However, the two really are one, as our whole life is a walk with God. But Freedom is something that for many is elusive.  In one or more of the things mentioned, whether through circumstances or choices made by us or others for us, in jobs, in family, in Government and many more. So how do we live in Freedom completely in our lives? The simple fact is we cannot, due to many reasons; due to sin, mans' desires, circumstances made by our choices or ...
