Only the Lord can keep you faithful.
Too many people think about faithfulness as being some kind of a thing that they must work up. But faith is a gift of God. You just have to depend on the Lord to keep you faithful, & trust Him that your faith won’t fail. Faith comes from Him.
All you have to do if you don’t have enough faith is just hear the WORD, read the WORD. That’s the source of faith. (Rom.10:17) You have to give Him a little cooperation, listen, read & obey, but that’s the easy part. It’s HIS job to keep y
ou faithful, full of faith!
So quit trying so hard! Quit worrying about it! Quit trying to work it up or even pray it down! Just keep trusting the Lord, & He’ll give you all the faith you need!
“Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, & to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour”, commit your way, your life, your mind, your thoughts, your time! “For I know Whom I have believed, & am persuaded that HE is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.” (Jude 24,25; 2Tim.1:12) Praise the Lord! Only He can do it!

只有上主才能使你保持忠信
太多的人认为，忠信是一种他们一定要下工夫才能获得的东西；但忠信、信心是上帝的礼物。你只有依靠上主，来保持忠诚，并信赖他将会使你不失信心。信心来自于上帝。
如果你没有足够信心的话，那么你所须做的就只是聆听圣言、阅读圣言。那是信心的来源。（罗马书10:17）你必须与他合作，聆听、阅读及服从她的话语，这些是容易的。而困难的部分，即使你保持忠信、充满信心，就是他的工作了。
因此不要那么费劲儿地去尝试！也不要去担心！别尝试下苦工来变得忠信，或靠着祷告来祈求上主使你忠信！你只须继续信赖上主，他就将会给你你需要的所有信心。
将你的行事方法、你的生命、你的心思、你的想法、你的时间，都交托给“那能保护你不失脚，使你能无瑕无疵，充满喜悦地站在他的荣耀面前的，我们的救主——唯一智慧的上帝”吧！“因为我知道我所信的是谁，也深信他能保全我所交付他的，直到那日。”（犹大书24,25;提摩太后书1:12）赞美主！只有他才能做到这些。
