“I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession” (1 Timothy 6:13)
What is truth? Jesus is truth! We are in a world that wants to hear what it wants to hear. We are in a world that attacks those who will not abide by their idea of truth. Christ is the way, truth, and life. In Him is all goodness. Walk then in the truth of Christ and be not swayed by the wicked of this world to bear witness to anything other than the truth You have already heard from Christ Himself. In Him is all life.
Lord, You have given me what I need. I have heard the report and You are calling me to be a witness. Guide me, O Lord, so that I may now and always walk humbly in the way of everlasting life. Help me to see through the nonsense around me and not doubt because of their incessant unbelieving questions that have already been answered by You. You have given us the words of eternal life; help me to live guided by them.
Lord Jesus, Word made flesh, You are truth and You have given us the truth that sets us free. Lead me to richly abide in You. Guide me in Your goodness to see that You have already given me what I need to hold fast in this world that seems to change its mind from one moment to the next. Lead me in Your goodness, Lord, and help me to always make a good confession. You are my Lord and Savior. I pray You help me to say in public what I say in private. Amen.
