Next on In Touch, the reassuring quality of faithfulness.

Faithfulness is one of the most important qualities to be found in our life.

And when you think about what that involves, sometimes is one of the most important qualities to be found in our life.

And when you think about what that involves, sometimes we have believed in people and

had faith in them and they've disappointed us.

They tell us one thing and do something differently.

And then there are people who go through very difficult times in life, hard times.

They're betrayed oftentimes or left with big debts or whatever it might be because of somebody's

unfaithfulness, lack of faithfulness.

And so it's a very important quality.

And I would ask you, would you be, would you fit the category

of somebody who's faithful?

When you say you'll do something, you do it.

When you say who you are, that's who you really are.

Or do you take that lightly?

God doesn't take it lightly.

So I want to title this message, the reassuring quality of faithfulness.

And when I think about that, I think about this passage in Genesis in the 32nd chapter. So just

listen to it a moment. In verse 9, Jacob said, O God of my Father Abraham and God of my Father Issey, O Lord, who said

to me, return to your country and to your relatives, and I will prosper you.

I am unworthy of all the loving kindness and of all the faithfulness which you have shown to your servant.
