Know this: God is faithful, even when we are faithless!
Abraham is the only person in the Bible who is called a friend of God (James 2:23).
Although he was not perfect in his walk with God, scripture records him as God’s friend and his “friend forever” (2 Chr. 20:7). Faith is exemplified throughout his life. Even when Abraham was weak in faith, God saw him as a person of faith.
From this “friend of God,” we learn that faith is not perfect character or integrity. Instead, it is simply taking God at His word and trusting Him. By doing so, Abraham became the model of faith for all believers.
