LENT 2017 Lenten Activities + Prayers - Day 28

[READ + MEDITATE]

As we continue our consideration of the “Fruit of Spirit,” it’s important to remember that these fruits are not only attributes for us to prize and prioritize as important, this fruit also describes what God is like; and this list of fruits are some the very character traits of God that we are called to emulate as image-bearers (Gen. 1:26).

The seventh fruit is FAITHFULNESS. The Greek word used for faithfulness in this passage is pistis and it can mean faith, firm conviction or persuasion, truthfulness, ground of belief, and trustworthiness.

It is an interesting thought to think of God as being one full of faith and conviction. Take some time today to consider God's pistis (faithfulness). And let's ask God for some of that faithfulness and conviction...in a age of cynicism, may we be found faithful. #GCofDunedinLent
