Faithful People Are Hard To Find

As the years have passed by, it's been harder to trust in people. Some of us in society have heard the only One we can trust is God. But recently I heard a wise man say that God works through people. Now, I have to agree with that! He does work through people; however, we have to take note of the characteristics of God we must learn. One particular attribute I continually find in God is faithfulness. No matter how bad things get, God is forever faithful. He doesn't allow His kids to beg for bread nor alone. We can truly spend on Jesus because He is our friend as well as our lord. But I've noticed another thing in life, it's hard to find faithful people you can trust with personal issues, business processes, and to gain strength from when your weak. From time to time, I see what burdens my pastors go through week in and week out. Counting on people to help build Gods kingdom is the toughest business going right now. Daily, thousands of pastors across the world quit! People owning corporations have to look over their shoulder because they can't trust people on their executive to do the right thing. Even in friendships, we can be there for people when theyre down but when we need help where are they? This is the story of our present lives, finding and knowing faithful people. People who will support, who won't judge you when you fall, and who'll be there no matter. This is agape love but in these times it's become an endangered species. Where are the faithful people in thisworld? I'll tell you my friends. It's those folks who may look like a hot mess now but when it comes down to the heat of the battle they are right beside you. It's those folks who are humble in sport and selfless. Their yes is there yes. Jonathan was a faithful friend to David. Timothy was a faithful son to Paul. John was a faithful student to Jesus. Ruth was a faithful daughter to Naomi. Joshua was a faithful apprentice to Mises. Faithfulness? Are you a faithful person or are you one of those folks who nobody can trust; just useless. Today, I want to strive to be more like Jesus; that is to be faithful to the end. He didnt stop until He completed the assignment on avid life to full. He is a perfect example of faithfulness in everything in life that is good and acceptable. So take heed to theses words from Solomon:

Proverbs 20:6
"Most men proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man proclaim his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?

Ouch! Til next time,dgwo
