Nothing But The Truth

"You can't handle the truth!"...words made famous by Jack Nicholson.

But can you? Seriously, can you handle the truth? We say we want people to be honest with us yet we feel our blood pressure rising when faced with statements that contradict the picture we've painted of ourselves. God desires truth in our innermost parts. He wants us to have an undivided heart. The world says do what you have to and say what you must to get to the top. But the Word clearly tells us that Kings take pleasure in honest lips, they value a person who speaks the truth. The world is trying to get to the top while the King is already at the top. I believe I'd rather walk in the path the King is taking. God's eyes are looking for those who speak truth.

Although the truth is hard to chew up and swallow at times, it is very freeing to our spirit. When we humbly accept truth and allow God to lovingly caress it into our hearts, then we can begin to experience changes that cause Kings to take notice. It is an admirable trait. Truth is progressive. It doesn't take steps backward. Yet, it is hardly to be found anymore. It is certainly not the norm. Why do we coward to integrity? Why do we stare blankly in another direction and allow truth to go unspoken yet again? Do you find it too difficult to walk this path? I encourage you to pray for the Lord to send forth His light and truth to guide you. They are sure to bring you to the place where He is. It might be the road less traveled but it doesn't have to remain that way. Just think...we could all be arm in arm, bringing strength to one another and going in the same direction toward the finish line. It can become a crowded street with the Banner of Truth guiding our every step forward.

  1. Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso.
