Okay for those that read my blog for lighthearted stories or pictures you may want to skip this.

For the others... my thought today was of truth.

Truth shines light/knowledge/awareness in our life.
Why is it that we fear the truth?
how often do we fear to hear the truth?
how often do we fear to speak the truth?
how often do we run from the truth?

How often do I chose to continue to run in the darkness away from the light?
How many times, and for how long will I stumble, wound, and scar my life in running from the truth?
What is it about the light that we fear?

Is it the glow that will expose my true self?
What is it, that I fear, in unveiling myself?
Is it the glow that reveals my motives and heart?
Is it the knowledge that I've allowed things I want to change to remain unchanged from neglect, fear or lack of discipline.

Is it the glow that reveals the others I have chosen to have in my life?
Is it fear of recognizing their true nature and being disappointed...
Is it fear of being rejected if I know their true intent?
Is it the awareness of things being less than what I want -that people disappoint me or intentionally hurt me?

Is it fear of acknowledging that the circumstances I am living in do not meet my expectations?
Is it the fear of scarred and unhealed areas that we have fought to hide?
Is it fear of the full knowledge of my life, because, then I need to acknowledge weakness/sins I have continued in or areas that I left unhealed.


Why is it that I fear knowing what needs to be changed in my life.
Especially when God has given my power to change things in my life.
Why is that I fear awareness of the fact that people in my life have disappointed me or intentionally hurt me.
Especially when I know that I like those in my life are not perfect and have done the same to others. But that God has blessed us with Jesus' blood that covers mine and their shortcomings. And that He loves us enough to want us to have authority to demand and require respect and to set boundaries with others.
Why is it that I fear a knowledge of sins I have continued in or areas that I have left unhealed.
Especially because God does not expect me to be completely sinless or un-scarred, but He provides the love and anointing oil to heal me and his blood that covers my sin.

Today I hope that I have learned from the truth He revealed and pray that He will bring it to completion in my life, to bring Him glory, and helps me see the treasures He gives us and to be blessed with the fact that God blesses us with time. Time is a but an illusion/perception that wee see our lives through...

An interesting quote I hear this week
Time has a mysterious kindness. It always gives back to us what we have lost, through wisdom and memories.


Scriptures tell us about truth. And that God shines his light in our hearts to help us understand Him and how He is working in our lives...
II Corinthians 4:6-10, 17
6For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness,"[a]made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. 7But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed....

16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
