Attributes of God - God is Faithful

Human beings are not faithful. Sooner or later anyone who depends on other humans will be disappointed. Promises will be broken, feelings will be hurt and hearts left in ruins.  God on the other hand is faithful, completely faithful. God will never… can never break a promise.

God is the healer of hurt feelings. God rebuilds broken hearts. The most faithful things that humans have direct experience with are the laws of physics. Every person alive is familiar with gravity. If you let go of object you're holding you can be certain that it will soon be drawn towards the ground. Leave an ice cube in the hot sun long enough and it will certainly melt. Put your unprotected hand in a flame and it will hurt.

God is more faithful than all of these. God's faithfulness is higher than these physical laws that we cherish. God's faithfulness is far beyond our comprehension. While the universe will eventually pass away, taking our familiar laws with it, God’s word, laws and character will always endure, God is eternally faithful.
