What Is Truth

Johnny Cash sang a song by that title!
Sitting at the dam on a Sunday afternoon listening to the rush of the water with the wind in my ears I can have a clear mind to think about very precious thoughts. My girl Zoey is with me and she looks like she too is looking off into the distance and contemplating things of her own. One of the things I am considering is The Truth. Pontious Pilate asked Jesus, "What is truth?" Jesus said He was The Way, The Truth and The Life. In imitation of Jesus and His follower, I can look out over the the world and love what I see, cry for the lost and help all I can.

 My desire is to tell the truth in a way that can prick the heart and heal a wound at the same time. Truth that will make you see the darkness and the light shinning through. I want to share words that will make you think for yourself and yet know you can trust the words that are coming to you.

The truth is what we all need to hear - but some don't want to hear it. The Truth hurts and heals, offends and bolsters, it make you uneasy and then when you accept the truth for what it is, it makes you very comfortable.

I love the truth. It has cut me like a two-edged sword and then made me to heal and be thoroughly restored as one who can hold my head up high no matter what I am going through. Truth is a way of life that divides you from others that want nothing to do with it. Truth is a glue that binds you to ones who love it and make it their own. This is my definition, what's yours?
Can you see what I see!

Everyone of them so very different and magnificently beautiful. He allows her to capture the most wonderful array of colors and designs. She also has friends (myself and Damon) that enjoy the heavenly gifts from God.  As you look at the three pictures above you will note they all have something in common.  Please understand the the glow of light pouring down did NOT come from any source of distinguishable light. No light was seen with the naked eye at the time of the shutter click. Only after looking at these pictures did the photographers see what God poured out on them. These are three different pictures from three different people and areas.  The awesomeness of God to send the light is always seen as His favor upon us. So many people today are really out of touch with God. He is just waiting to hear ...
