Trust God's Faithfulness To You
Eighteen years ago I was in the hospital with a blood clot in the artery of my heart. I was given a 50/50 chance of living. I was flooded with thoughts like; where did I fail? What did I do to bring this upon me? As I began thinking, my mind was flooded with failures, like where did I blow it this time?
A mature sister in the Lord walked into my hospital room not knowing the battle going on in my head. She said, "Bill, I sense strongly that I am to tell you that now is not the time to wonder about your faithfulness to the Lord, but to trust in His faithfulness to you." I felt such freedom as she spoke those words... "Trust in His faithfulness to you." I'm still here!
I believe 2021 will be a year of God's great faithfulness. His faithfulness will override doubt, unbelief, failures and will heal and restore many. His goodness will lead many to repentance. There will be many testimonies: "Great is Thy Faithfulness, Lord unto Me."
"It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness." Lamentations 3:22-23 (KJV)
Whispers Of Faithfulness...

* When God calls He rarely considers our plans. Where He leads often makes no sense. And the worst place on earth turns out to be perfect to advance His Kingdom.
