~Job 6:25a
This blog is going to be about Truth. So are you ready some for some honest brutality? Well ready or not, here it is: The Truth hurts. The Truth is hardly ever what you want to hear. The Truth can be ugly. But does that mean we should avoid it? Does that mean the Truth is bad? Does that mean the Truth isn't what is best for us? The answer to all of those questions is a big, fat, (honest) 'NO'. Just like nasty cherry-flavored medicine, the Truth is often the only thing that can cure us, even if we don't like it.
You know what are honest and truthful? Shadows. You can't fool shadows. They will show the real you. The you God created you to be (unless you're wearing a box as a skirt). A shadow can't convey immodest clothing, or makeup. You'll never hear a shadow uttering obscenities or attention seeking phrases.
A lot of times we try to fool ourselves into believing things that are not the Truth. But it always comes back to the Truth, doesn't it? God knows how things are supposed to be, and lies and cover-ups will never deceive him. So why try to fool ourselves and others?
