Sometimes my life can appear to be like a roller coaster.
One day I am up, the next day I can be down.
In dealing with life’s hiccups, we can be tempted to get off track. We KNOW who we are in Christ, but are we
consistent? Selah
When we see a rainbow in the sky, we all marvel at its
beauty. It’s interesting to see how the different colors all unite as one to
create that rainbow. Yet when we see
that very same rainbow, it is a reminder of God’s covenant He made with us so
many years ago. We all can say that God
has been consistent with that agreement!
I have set my
rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me
and the earth. Genesis 9:13. (NIV)
Since
we as His people strive to be Christ-like, part of God’s character is
consistency. He expects us to be consistent in our obedience, our faithfulness,
and even in our personal life. Imagine if our Savior wasn’t consistent, where
would we be? Selah
The counsel of the
Lord stands forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. Psalm 33:1
I
will be the first one to repent of my inconsistencies and ask God to grant me
more grace in this area. He’s calling
for us to be consistent, especially in times when it may appear not to be so
popular! Stay encouraged!

Hi Evie,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your post. Yes, I am so thankful for our Lord's faithfulness, His unchanging character and truth and for His Grace. Oh how I want to be more like Him...
God bless
Oh how I want to be more like Him too sis! I don't want to be like a roller coaster in my walk. Yet here's the key, our total dependence on Him. Only He can help us in our weakness. Thanks for reading!

I can relate to this. Currently on I guess you call a low but I know that it's not forever, just for now. There has to be a purpose for it. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI realized whether we are Chrisitans not, life can just have those hiccups. Yet what I love about God is He will give us peace, strength, and even the joy to see us through it! Praise Him.
DeleteThanks for sharing this message with us, Evie. It is a great reminder for US to remain constant, obedient and faithful in all we do. Christ definitely gave us the perfect example of being obedient to God....to the point of death on a cross! Wow! God bless.
