A Daily Devotional
About the power of honesty:
Job 6:24 "Teach me, and I will be quiet; show me where I have been wrong. 25 How painful are honest words! (NIV)
To live life honestly, to live in reality, we must be honest in knowing what is happening inside us and within our life. If we remain ignorant about what is inside us, we ignore what is going on in God's temple. When we are not honest with ourselves, we ignore the kingdom of God within us. When we are in adversity or in tough times, we should know and deal with the facts. Even when situations crumble in our life, the more we know, the more power we have over circumstances. Power over circumstances is why honesty is so important. When we are honest, we are able to face the facts. When we face the facts we have power over what the facts tell us. If we lie to ourselves, we put ourselves in a helpless position because we have no power over the way things are. Our life is better when we have have power over bad things than to have no power over bad things. Obviously, we do not want adversity in our life. However, when adversity comes, being honest is a top priority.
