Day 25 of Lent

From being wet and cold yesterday, this Saturday offers blue skies and semi-warm temperatures.
It's a glorious day, but it is still Lent!

One topic that has come to the forefront of my thoughts today has been that of, "truth versus lying." The eighth commandment warns us about "misrepresenting the truth in our relations with others." Since God is the source of all truth, "we His children are called to live in the truth."


Jesus Himself said, "I am the way, the truth and the life."
To live in Jesus and have Jesus live in us, we must be people of "truth." It is easy to lie and the more one lies, the easier it becomes.

I must remember that one of the titles, Jesus gives satan, is the "father of lies." To lie is to participate in satan's game plan. Its that simple!

To live in the light of Christ, is to live in His truth.
Jesus, bless me with the grace to tell the truth.

God bless!
