One Simple Truth
Our word is worth our effort, especially when it’s hard.
Scripture
Psalm 15:4 ESV (Read the Full Chapter Here)
…who swears to his own hurt and does not change.
Another translation of this verse reads, “…and keep their promises even when it hurts.” As people, especially as Christians, we must understand the weight of our word, our commitment. If you are willing and able to do something, commit. If you are not, don’t. Here’s where the real test comes though, are you willing to fulfill your commitment even when it may mean difficulty or loss to you? Our word is worth our effort, especially when it’s hard.
Prayer
Lord, give me willingness to be generous, but give me strength to carry out my best intentions.
In Jesus name, amen.
