It Ain’t True
I believe the most difficult sin for me since childhood has been lying. I will be transparent to say that it is mainly because it is so easy to do it and be successful. I have always known that lying is wrong but in a moment when I have a self-serving purpose that I want to achieve it became/becomes my resource. Regardless of whether I would reconcile it as a “white lie”, close enough to the truth or even that they can’t handle the truth, it is still a lie. But now the concept of lying has broadened as a result of my getting older and wiser.
Now I know that lying is not just in what I say but also in what I do, whether is it is in my action or presence.
All in the name of consistency and integrity, I am pressed to not just speak truth but to manifest truth in who I am. God documents this as holiness and righteousness. As impossible as it seems in a situation, I know that all things are possible outside of a situation. What I mean is that it take planning and positioning. We have to plan with wisdom and position ourselves with purpose. We have to plan for the goal desired and position ourselves to make it possible to achieve!
