You Can’t Handle the Truth!

Ephesians 4:25
Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

Why? Why would we lie to one another? Sometimes I don't just don't understand the human nature. It seems like folks are so quick to lie or not share the full truth with one another. Why would this even be a problem among believers of Jesus Christ? Look at the last portion of this scriputre. It says, "we are members one of another."

If we are members of one another and on the same team, then why would we deceive one another with lies? We should be able to tell the truth to one another. We should be able to talk to one another in a loving way with the truth and no deception. We should be able and share things that are close to our hearts.

Why you ask? Because we are members one of another. We are in this battle of life together. God has told us to put away lying, envy, strife and anger. We should learn to forgive. We should learn to speak the truth. We should learn that we are a part of the family of God.

To everyone who has listened to my burdens and listened to me as I spilled my heartaches, thank you.  Thank you for speaking truth to me. It was in those times I needed understand and wisdom and you gave that to me. Thank you.
