Truth Is The Only Safe Ground To Stand Upon

Truth Is The Only Safe Ground To Stand Upon 
Walking home, you played back that moment. The moment when you were faced with the decision: To lie or not to lie. Your heart began to beat faster and louder. Your palms starts to sweat. You open your mouth to speak. You spoke to hide the truth. Now just in the doorway, guilt starts to eat you up. Regret would later follow afterwards. If you would have spoken the truth, you would be spare of pain, betrayal, doubt, and guilt itself. Even though it seems like lying might the best thing to spare you the moment of rage, the truth is better. If you hid the truth, it will come out of the closet eventually. Truth is the only safe ground to stand upon.

I call Heaven and Earth to witness against you today: I place before you Life and Death, Blessing and Curse. Choose life so that you and your children will live. And love God, your God, listening obediently to him, firmly embracing him. Oh yes, He is life itself, a long life settled on the soil that God, your God, promised to give your ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. (Deuteronomy 30:19-20 MSG)." JPG file.
