Resolve for Monday

Every Monday I'm going to post one of Jonathan Edwards resolutions. He penned these while still a very young man and used them to guide his life. What am I using to guide me, my family, my ministry???

32. Resolved, To be strictly and firmly faithful to my trust, that, in Prov. xx. 6. ‘A faithful man, who can find?’ may not be partly fulfilled in me. 

•  "My God, I bless thee that thou hast given me the eye of faith, to see thee as Father, To know thee as a covenant God, to experience thy love planted in me. For faith is a grace of union by which i spell out my entitlement to thee; faith casts my anchor upwards where I trust in thee and engage thee to be my Lord. Be pleased to live and more within me, breathing in my prayers, inhabiting my praises, speaking in my words, moving in my actions, living in my life, causing me to grow in grace. Thy bounteous goodness has helped me believe, but my faith is weak and wavering, its light is dim, its steps tottering, its increase slow, its backsliding frequent. It should scale the heavens but lies grovelling in the dust. Lord fan this divine spark into glowing flam."  (From: The Valley of Vision; A collection of puritan prayers and devotions. ) 
• If we put faithfulness in our callings at the top of our priorities then all others things fall into alignment. This week ask Jesus to show you through the scripture what it means to be faithful to what God has laid on your heart.
