Meditations on "Truth"

Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry it out.

The old life is gone; a new life has begun! (2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT)

God calls us to overcome shame by living in community with Him and with others.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know. (Proverbs 3:5 GNT)

We have become beloved sons and daughters of God.  This is the truth that frees us from our past life. 

Just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways, and my thoughts are higher than your thoughts. (Isaiah 55:9 ERV)

When God is silent, He is not deaf or dumb.

He (the Lord) is here, close by my side, so nothing can defeat me. (Psalm 16:8)

Are we as genuine on the inside as we try to portray on the outside? 

The Lord is compassionate and merciful, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love (Psalm 103:8)

God’s Holy Spirit enables us to change from being half-hearted in what we do to being fully surrendered to God.

Today is a good day to ask God to help us let go of our harshness and embrace the gentleness of spirit that allows our hearts and minds to be at peace.
