Meditations on "Truth"

What if each of us lived more like Jesus and let goodness and love flow freely from us to others?

Today we continue to look at conditions which will help us walk in the life-giving ways of peace and blessing that God desires for us.

Who wants trouble? None of us do and as we listen to God’s counsel there’s a lot of trouble we can avoid.

Jesus said: "Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows.

Sometimes, when it particularly suits us, we make excuses for not telling the truth.

Many of us, when we were active in addiction, took risks which were unhealthy and some of us continue to live with the consequences of our actions.

When guard rails are erected they are put there to protect people from the danger that is on the other side of the rail or rails.

In addiction we engaged in all kinds of risky behaviour.

Our lives in addiction were often shaped by characteristics of impatience and selfishness.

It's spring - time for a good old-fashioned spring cleaning.

Through all previous generations even to the generation alive today, people have lived in an environment where good and evil are muddled.

We are unable to control all our circumstances, but we don't have to let what happens spoil our day.
