Who is good, who is faithful?
Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find? Proverb 20:6 KJV
Most people of this world are out to help themselves with little regard to helping others. We see these folks everyday in our workplace, on television, and at the various places where we shop. They have a self-promotion about themselves that is loud, unafraid, and arrogant.
They claim to be good but is anyone good? (Matthew 7:11). They often claim to know more than they do. They are afraid of the words…”I don’t know”.
Few are the quiet ones who do what they should do. Who show up to work a little early, who have a game-plan in their head for the day, who find the giving of themselves reward enough.
There’s a sick phenomenon that seems to have stretched across our airways and that is an instant desire for fame. Having fifteen-minutes of fame is more important to our youth than the relationships around them…
Relationships are important… just ask someone who is faithful. Someone who does not seek the lime-light… who is more concerned with fixing a problem than seeking out a trophy. Someone who sees beyond the temporary and appreciates the honor of working side-by-side with others. Someone you can count on... someone who is faithful.
