What is truth?<\/strong> This morning I read an article in the daily newspaper reporting supposedly the \u201creal<\/em>\u201d truth about an incident that happened recently. Was it? Or was it another opinion?<\/p>\n Some people lie out rightly or only tell some of the facts. Some withhold information and give a false impression. Sometimes, nothing is said when the truth should be told. Can we believe anyone anymore? And, if we are honest, we must confess that at one time or another, we too are guilty of telling lies.<\/p>\n In his book What is the Father Like<\/strong>?, Philip Keller<\/em> writes that what God says is absolutely true because He is the embodiment of all truth, and all truth through all time has its source in God.<\/p>\n This reminded me that truth is constant and unchanging. God\u2019s truth remains the same from age to age, generation to generation, no matter how things change. God\u2019s truth will set us free, if we act upon it. If we ignore it, our lives can be wrecked \u2014 broken hearts, hopes, homes, and even countries.<\/p>\n If our lives are centered in God\u2019s truth, He is able to renew our minds, calmly guide our emotions, and activate our will to tell the truth. His presence brings truth and can bring a magnificent, purifying influence into our lives.<\/p>\n The Lord Jesus, the Truth, can restore our soul, heal our diseases, preserve us in peril, and make us live in peace. To live life not believing in absolute truth robs us of the stability He seeks to give to us. We can trust God to be absolutely truthful \u2014 He cannot lie. The more we are centered in Him, the more we will become like Him \u2014 more truthful.<\/p>\n We sometimes wonder if what we are told by others is the truth. With God, we never have to wonder. He is Truth.<\/p>\n Father, You alone are absolute truth. You cannot lie. Your Word is Truth, and we can rely on it. Cause our lives to be centered in You and make us more like You \u2014 the Truth. Amen.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n By Katherine Kehler<\/a> \u2022\u00a0 Keep Yourselves in God\u2019s Love<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0 Living Waters<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n \u2022\u00a0\u00a0Salvation Explained<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n SUBSCRIBE BY EMAIL:<\/strong> FOLLOW THIS LINK<\/a><\/p>\n\n
