A – God’s loyalty is expressed in love.  God is loyal to us – putting up with our wayward thoughts and actions that draw us away from Him.  He never leaves us.  Great reminder and challenge to take step towards him today.  He is worthy of our loyalty and faith.

R – Heavenly Father, you are loyal and faithful.  Empower us to reciprocate your loyalty and love by our thoughts, words and actions. Help us to remain loyal when other things draw us away from you.  We choose to take a step towards you today.
