There is a direct relationship between truth and happiness. Truth leads to happiness. Lies bring misery. Celebrate the truth in life.
We cannot be happy separated from the truth; we cannot be happy in
a world of lies.
Our society right now has a very casual relationship with the
truth. We actually live in a culture
that is trying to murder truth.
Culture hates truth. Current
culture believes that we can all live happily ever after in our own individual
truth. But that is nonsense.
Wisdom is actually not knowing the truth, but living the truth.
If there is no such thing as truth, there is no such thing as
wisdom.
Our culture doesn’t believe there are great decisions because
there is no such thing as objective truth.
Decisions that align with truth are wisdom
As Christians, we have to reject the casual relationship with
truth. We are called to take truth
seriously.
What does it mean to give truth a place of honor in my life?
Focus:
Our culture is trying to murder truth.
Act:
Give truth a place of honor in my heart, mind and soul by telling
the truth. Next time I catch myself
about to tell a lie, pause. Ask myself
why I am lying.
Pray:
Jesus, I know you are the way, the truth and the life. Inspire me to speak the truth, live the
truth, and celebrate truth.
Amen.
