I’ll Be More Faithful When I’m Older
by: Glenna Marshall

Practice Faithfulness Today

In my twenties I thought: Twenty years from now, I will one day wake up faithful. I was busy at a job. I had kids. I would get to be this wise Christian woman that I desired to be later in life, and I really thought that would just come with age.I am twenty years away from that, and it’s folly to expect to wake up faithful twenty years from now if you’re not feeding your faithfulness today. If you desire to walk with Jesus more ten years from now, twenty years from now, or thirty years from now, you need to be feeding your faithfulness today.That’s not something that’s just going to magically happen. The Lord works and sanctifies over time, and Paul uses that language “one degree of glory to another.” It’s slow work and it doesn’t happen overnight. It happens by walking with Jesus day in and day out in ordinary ways—reading the word, fellowshipping with the body of Christ, praying on a regular basis. Doing those things seems unremarkable, but with time they just have a life-changing effect on our hearts and they shape us to be like Jesus.Read More – Go to SourceGlenna Marshall is the author of Everyday Faithfulness: The Beauty of Ordinary Perseverance in a Demanding World.Need a prayer?
