Believer, here's a painful truth. You are loved by the Lord, redeemed by His blood, called by grace, kept in Christ, accepted, and on your way to heaven. Yet you've been unfaithful to God, your dearest friend, to Jesus who claims you, and to the Holy Spirit who gave you new life. Think about your vows and promises. Do you remember the love and joy when your faith was new?

Back then, you clung to your Master, promising, "He will never accuse me of indifference; I will always serve Him eagerly; my heart will remain true to Him alone." But has it been so? If you're honest, you'll admit otherwise. Prayer has become rushed and empty. Communion with Christ is neglected. The mind is cluttered with worldly concerns rather than heavenly thoughts.

Instead of serving, there is disobedience. Instead of zeal, indifference; instead of patience, impatience; instead of faith, a reliance on human strength. As a soldier of the cross, there has been cowardice and rebellion. You've been unfaithful. How can we speak strongly enough against this betrayal? Words fall short. Let our repentant hearts condemn the sin we find in ourselves. How shameful to betray Him who never forgets us. Today He stands with our names engraved on His heart before God's throne.
