Faithfulness has never begun with us. It has always begun with God. In this gentle, Scripture-rooted reflection, we explore how Yahushua fulfills both sides of the covenant, plants us beside living waters, and grows the fruit of faithfulness within us through His Spirit. This is the steadying truth: our faithfulness flows from His.
