1 John 3:18-19
Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth. This is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence: (If our hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.)
I cannot keep anything from God. If I am not acting in love and in truth, He is the first to know about it. The Holy Spirit will help me to recognize this untruth sooner than I would on my own. If I claim to love my neighbor but am judgemental and harsh behind their back, am I living in God’s truth? If I argue a point in irritation and frustration simply because that is how I am feeling, am I living in God’s truth? I need help from the Holy Spirit, and then I need to act with that help.
Holy Lord, help me to see and feel when I am veering away from your truth. I want to do better. I am blessed to know your truth, and I want to fully live in it. Amen
Becky, transforming
