Psalm 43:3 Send forth your light and your truth,
let them guide me;
let them bring me to your holy mountain,
to the place where you dwell.
let them guide me;
let them bring me to your holy mountain,
to the place where you dwell.
What rhymes with tooth and satisfies more than food? Truth......I'm convinced that somewhere deep inside we long for the truth like we long for satisfying food. We want to know the right and dependable way because all around us swirl deception, poor judgment, conflicts of interest, influence peddlers, exaggerated news, unreported news...We don't always have enough knowledge and we can't always rely on our "common sense" alone. Truth has something to do with important facts and vital wisdom. Finding the truth is like sitting in trigonometry class and, all of a sudden, it starts to make sense. Truth is revealed and truth is eternal. Truth is one of those things that just doesn't change, but is necessary for every situation and every day. No wonder that one of the ways Jesus describes Himself is the Truth ("I am the way and the truth and the life" from John 14:6). Living without truth is like trying to draw a perfectly straight line without a ruler...you may come close with a lot of effort, but you just can't get there.
Let's bask in the truth as we enjoy the company of Jesus!
blessings,
Rob Smith
