walking in truth

would you like a rock-solid, time-tested formula for success? here it is: seek God's truth, and live by it. of course this strategy my sound simple, and it may sound somewhat old-fashioned, especially if you're a fast-track, dues-paying citizen of the 21st century. but guess what, God's truth never goes out of style. and God's wisdom is as valid today as it was when HE laid the foundations of the universe.

in John 8:32, it reminds us that, "you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (NKJV). and St.Augustine also had this advise: "Let everything perish! Dismiss these empty vanities! And let us take up the search for the truth."

God is vitally concerned with truth. HIS Word teaches the truth; HIS Spirit reveals the truth; HIS Son leads us to the truth. when we open our hearts to God, and when we allow HIS Son to rule over our thoughts and our lives, God reveals HIMSELF, and we come to understand the truth about ourselves and the truth about God's gift of grace.

so....are you seeking God's truth and making decisions in light of that truth? hopefully so. because when you do, you'll discover that the truth will indeed set you free, now and forever !! i hope all of you will find that truth !!! good day all of you !!!

quote of the day:

"Having a doctrine pass before the mind is not what the Bible means by knowing the truth. It's only when it reaches down deep into the heart that the truth begins to set us free, just as a key must penetrate a lock to turn it, or as rainfall must saturate the earth down to the roots in order for your garden to grow." by John Eldredge
