Faithful

   "What is God's standard of evaluation for you and me in our given roles?  Success?  Perfection??  His word tells us, 'Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful' 1Corinthians 4:2

 FAITHFULNESS IS GOD'S STANDARD!

   As His servants we are not required to be perfect or successful- simply faithful!  Our assigned role is a trust.  In His sovereignty He has said it is in this role we can best glorify Him.

  Holy Father, You know the joys and heartaches of my role.  I confess that I have strived for my will and worldly success and perfection instead of Yours.  Grant me the courage to be a servant.  Oh, God, I long to be faithful to You.  I accept my assigned role as a gift.  Teach me to 'cease striving and know that You are God'."
