Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind...Their loyalty is divided between God and the world, and they are unstable in everything they do (James 1:6,8 NIV).
*Every day, we have a chance to prove our loyalty to God and be a light for the sake of others. God's loyalty towards us never wavers....He remembers to wake us up each morning, never forgets any measurement of assistance to get us through each day, and shows unwavering love despite how we may misrepresent ourselves, Him, or forget to take time out for Him. Therefore, why is it that the very individual who is loyal and provides for us is the very person that we neglect or can't be true to? Many people are MORE loyal to people who carry humanistic traits to fail you, loyal to stuff that can break or disappear, or loyal to behaviors that do not bring any source of prosperity or guidance. If these people put ideas and behaviors over God, then how can these very same individuals show loyalty, yet alone expect it? Also, if you are truly loyal, why would you surround yourself with individuals of questionable loyalty? This is an unnecessary hardship you bring on yourself. Therefore, trust God who is the one that constantly looks out for you and has your best interest at heart. He can gives you discernment on who to trust to fulfill the needs of your heart, mind, body, and soul. If you are unable to fully put trust in Him without leaning to your own understanding, ask yourself can you really expect the best or even be trusted with anything except less?
