What Does It Mean To Be Faithful?

Being faithful applies to every aspect of our lives.  God gave us the life to live, we honor Him by living it to the full.  This implies in a manner that pleases Him.  How can we be faithful?  How can we please Him?  to know Him, Jesus, is to love HIm.  And when we love Him, we obey Him.  

Let's give an example of 3 areas to be faithful in:

1. Our bodies.  God gave us 1 body in this world.  We honor Him by doing the best we can to maintain a healthy body and not to squander the health and life He has so graciously bestowed upon us. Paul explains this: Don't you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, Who Is in you, Whom you have received from God?  You are not your own. (1 Cor. 5:19 NLT)  So, may God give us the wisdom to care for our bodies.  This is the responsibility of every human being.
2. Our families.  How many men have I met who have deserted their wives and children God gave to them?  Makes me want to cry when I see how they have destroyed the women and children God gave to them to care for.  I'm sure it breaks God's heart.  We must be faithful to our husbands and children unto death.  This applies to every human being.  God made mankind in this way, as decreed in Eden.  It has not changed.  This nation will be judged for this faithless sin of divorce.  God have mercy on America.
3. Our testimony.  We, as believers, have the light of Christ, the light of life within us.  We are light  bearers.  Bearers of the Truth that Jesus is real.  We live in a world of the living dead.  Those without God and without hope in this dark world, and the utter darkness of an eternity without hope.  So, we must tell all about the hope that lies within us.  And pray they believe and have life in Him.
4. We could go on and on.  Our talents, words, opportunities, etc. Everything, every moment in life we seek to please God.  This is the ultimate in faithfulness.  We must love the people around us and always be merciful to others.  

Moreover it is required that stewards be found faithful. (1 Cor. 4:2 ESV)

For we must all stand before Christ to be judged.  We will receive whatever we deserve for the good or the evil we have done in this earthly body. (2 Cor.5:10 NLT)  So, we make it our goal to please Him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it. (2 Cor. 5:9 NIV)  

For the Son of Man is going to come in His Father's glory with His angels, and then He will reward each person according to what they have done.  (Mt. 16:27)  

Well done, thou good and faithful servant.  You have been faithful with little, I will give you much.  Enter into the joy of your Lord.  (Words of Jesus, Gospels)
