Consistency

con-sis-ten-cy\ken-'sisten-se\n

1.  a degree of density, firmness, viscosity, etc.: The liquid has the consistency of cream.

 

2.  steadfast adherence to the same principles, course, form, etc.: There is consistency in his pattern of behavior.

 

3.  agreement, harmony, or compatibility, especially correspondence or uniformity among the parts of a complex thing: consistency of colors throughout the house.

 

4. the condition of cohering or holding together and retaining form; solidity or firmness

If you ask me, the most difficult aspect of the Christian walk is consistency. Waiting, praying, trusting, believing, and even growing or stretching are far more easier tasks than actually remaining consistent in attitude or actions. The unbelieving world rests on coiled springs ready to pounce on any hint of inconsistency in the walk of a believer. May God grant us the daily wherewithal to conduct ourselves in a manner consistent with our holy calling as true children of God.
