Truth Will Guide You


Wisdom to Change
However, when the Spirit of Truth has come, He will guide you into all
truth. John 16:13a

I had a conversation the other day with my sister and she told me of a
young lady trying out for a position through the county. She received a
letter stating she was denied the position she applied for. Well, she set
out to find out why she was denied. Upon review with the county’s
personnel staff, in the past she received tickets and did not pay them on
time which resulted in suspension of her license. The young lady with
tears in her eyes realized her father told her to get her act together
more than once. She did not listen. She listened when she wanted to make a
change and make something out of her life. Her father revealed TRUTH, she
rejected the TRUTH and now it has cost her. Eventually she will be able to
apply for the position again, but for now she’s left thinking of how she
would not hear TRUTH from the one who loved her. 

God said be a doer of the Word not just a hearer. When TRUTH is revealed
we need to act on that Word immediately! Truth which is God’s Holy written
Word will always lead you to greatness. Truth will never lead you down the
wrong path. Truth will keep you if you choose to be kept. Truth says if we
abide in God’s Word, we shall know the Truth and the Truth shall make us
free. Free from what? Truth frees us from making the wrong decision,
heartache, consequences, trouble and a whole lot of others things you
don’t want. Truth helps us to see God’s goodness working in our lives.
Truth when applied will help you serve God with your whole heart. Truth
lets us know, don’t go that way, don’t make that business deal or anything
that would cause decrease in your life. Truth will help you save money.
Truth will help you discern fact from fiction. Truth will help you walk
upright. Truth will step in to help you not sin against a Loving God.
Truth applied to your life will cause you to live longer, stronger and in
your right mind. Truth won’t let you doubt what God says because Truth
makes you FREE! 

The Truth of the matter is, if the young lady listened and applied Truth
to her life, she would have never been denied the position. Truth will
always lead you to a path of peace, security, love, wisdom, understanding,
mercy and grace. If you listen closely, Truth is God’s way of saying, I
love you!

Have a Beautiful Day
