Seven Jewels Of Faith

DAY 4 OF 7

STEADFASTNESS

Steadfastness is doing right, even when circumstances are not favorable. Steadfastness is doing right even when there is loss, pain, sorrow, grief, and suffering. King David asked for a clean heart and a steadfast spirit. (Psalms 51:10) Today steadfastness is a missing element. Loyalty in relationships is also missing. Hence, even husband-wife relationships are not stable, affecting many families in the world.

Steadfastness is consistency and reliability. It is easy to predict the behavior of a steadfast person. For example, a person cannot be lured or made to compromise for Rs.100 or Rs. 100 or Rs. One million. The response would be consistent. A steadfast parent or teacher would be consistent in disciplining and guiding.

A person who puts a hand to a plow should not turn back. (Luke 9:62) Following the Lord Jesus Christ is a steadfast covenant. It cannot be an optional commitment that could be altered or edited or rejected according to whims and fancies. Faith generates faithfulness that is expressed in steadfastness.
