Importance Of FaithfulnessQuote…
“The one thing I have observed above everything else is the value of faithfulness to a person’s spiritual well-being. If you do not commit to be faithful to church, to prayer, and to reading the Bible as a believer, you will be struggling throughout your lifetime. I have seen people saved who were in desperate situations with seemingly insurmountable problems, but who were faithful. Somehow they found the Lord’s strength and were able to pull through the most trying of circumstances.”
