WHAT IS FAITHFULNESS?
by Bill Kochman
12-08-2016
Faithfulness is just doing what you do,
And doing it reliably every single day,
It's demonstrating your trustworthiness,
Regardless of whatever comes your way.
Faithfulness is being obedient to God,
And doing your very best in your tasks,
It's denying yourself and your pleasures,
And just doing whatever the Lord asks.
Faithfulness also means being full of faith,
And knowing that God is trustworthy too,
It is confidence that despite your trials,
God will always reliably see you through.
This poem is based on the meaning of the original Greek word -- "pistos" -- which is translated as "faithful" in the King James version of the Holy Bible.
