With His Faithfulness

Growing up in a family of Marines, I've often heard the phrase "Semper Fi". It is a shortened version of the United States Marine Corps motto "semper fidelis", which is Latin for "always faithful". But, has any Marine, or any human being at all, ever lived it 100%? Think about your own life. Have you ever broken a promise? Had one made to you that was broken? Did you ever start something you really thought you'd enjoy and want to be committed to, only to abandon it at the first sign of difficulty? Or maybe you've partnered with someone to complete a specific task only to find out your partner bailed on you when the going got tough. If you can identify with any of these scenarios, then you know that no human being is "always faithful". It's one reason why we should be thankful that our God has a perfect track record. This week at Friendship, we will talk about being fortified with God's faithfulness, which really means he is RELIABLE. If you've been frustrated by unreliable family members, friends, employees, employers, leaders, news media, vehicles, financial advice, or even weather reports (those drive me crazy!), we encourage you to hear this message on the One who has never failed us and won't start now.
