The Christian life is a journey full of moments of faithfulness, but also times we relapse into old patterns of sin. Our sin illustrates our faithlessness—but thankfully when we’re faithless, God is faithful! The story of Abraham and Abimelech illustrates this struggle, as we all falter. But despite our failures, there is hope: God offers us grace and second chances in Jesus Christ! We must lean on God's faithful promises, the support of our church community, and the provision of Christ to help us stay on course. When we relapse into old sins, God’s love and grace are steadfast, and he sovereignly keeps us.
