"Honesty does not test like honey!"


Galatians 4:16, Ephesians 4:1-16

I am not a fan of hearing the truth. It hurts when someone tells you that you have an issue in your life that you needs to your immediate attention. It pains us when we begin to realize that we are wrong and someone else is right. Our pride takes a hit and we humility sets in. But sometimes instead of accepting the truth we reject it and consider our Christian Brother or Sister our enemy for telling us the truth. At this point we begin to rationalize how we are right and they are wrong.

We are not enemies within the body of Christ, instead we there is unity and not division in the Body of Christ. We are here to  aid to each other and not act as a virus or a cancer that slowly destroys the body. But the Body of Christ grows when truth is presented forth in love (Ephesians 4:15-16).  But where confusion and pride abide only impending destruction can expected.

So friends please remember the truth is only spoken to aid us and not destroy us. Stay focused, you can do this.

"In His JOY!"
