When following Jesus, he will lead you down the path of faithfulness.
Faithfulness is sticking with it, to the very end. It’s needed when the inspiration fades and the perspiration begins. Faithfulness is an afterthought in the ‘feel good’ moment; when the holy goose bumps are a mile high. When they disappear, and the only bumps you have are the bumps and bruises from following Jesus, that's when faithfulness is vital.
Receiving eternal life requires faith, but living the life God is calling you to requires faithfulness.
Consider it pure joy when living a life surrendered to Christ is harder than you thought it’d be. Consider it pure joy when your obedience to God limits the options and creates difficulty. Consider it pure joy when serving others is inconvenient and goes unappreciated. Consider it pure joy when sacrificing for the Kingdom of God costs you dearly. Consider it pure joy when you follow Jesus as he leads you down this path. It’s the back roads and bumpy trails of participation in God’s purposes for the world. It’s the trail that's been blazed by the heroes of the faith, and now, it’s your turn.
Jesus said, ‘Come, follow me.’ If you’ve ever thought to ask, ‘Where are we going?’, now you know.
Consider This: Will you follow him down the path he leads you?
‘For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.’ (Matthew 16:25 NIV)
