Faithfulness on Display

“For I have always been mindful of your unfailing love
 and have lived in reliance on your faithfulness.” 
Psalm 26:3


I recently wrote this post for my church's newsletter and feel it's worth repeating here. 

David Jeremiah asked the following question: “What would you display in a museum of God’s faithfulness in your life?" It caused me to stop and think.

God’s Faithfulness. Not for mankind; for me. How has God been faithful to me?

Is it a prayer He answered the way I hoped? Was it one I wrestled with and then was rewarded? God always answer our prayers. Sometimes we like the answer. Sometimes we don’t.

Is it the times He protected me from harm? When I was driving? When I got sick? When a promotion at my job would have brought confusion and disappointment?

Was it when He refused my request and I later found out it would have hurt me?

Was it the gifts he bestowed on me so I can serve Him? Did He give me the skills to enable me to do His work?


Did He provide a friend to greatly impacted my life with their godly wisdom and discernment? One who helped me through difficult days by seeing God’s way was the best way?

Was He faithful in guiding my steps?

What about your life? Do you remember the times He helped you through difficult situations and you knew in your heart it was God that did it?

Remembering one act of faithfulness frequently refreshes the memory of a thousand others.  We have the assurance that He works at all times as we remember what He’s done for us.

What would you display in a museum of God’s faithfulness in your life? It’s worth thinking about.


As Christians we need to know that God will continue to care for us, and that His continuing care is based not on our faithfulness but on His.” 
Mark Dever, Senior Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington DC


Chorus of the praise song "Goodness of God"
Bethel Music

"And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God."


By His Grace . . .
