John 8:32 (NKJV) 32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
There is so much power in this short verse. Anyone who learns to truly understand what it means will be blown away.
Truth has power. It has the power to bring immense change to so many lives.
There is one little problem, though. So, let me explain.
The truth can set us free, just as Jesus said.
The truth is simple. Truth is a fact or set of facts. Nothing can change the truth. It is what it is.
But dealing with the truth isn’t always easy. Despite truth being simple, it can have many pieces. And that can make it complicated to handle or deal with.
Allowing God to show us how to handle the truth will bring freedom to so many lives.
This can take hard work, and may require extreme perseverance in some cases as we work through letting the truth free us from whatever situation we may be in.
Sometimes it happens quickly. Many times, it isn’t so quick. It takes longer than we’d like it to take.
But that’s OK, because God will give us the grace and the strength to see it through if we let Him.
In the end, it’s up to us whether we let the truth work in our lives or not.
We can accept the truth, and we can hit it head on, moving toward the freedom that we seek from the things that keep us bound and in chains.
Or we can ignore the truth and run from it, clinging instead to what we’re familiar with, choosing to stay in those chains simply because it seems easier.
We choose. Let’s choose truth and the freedom that comes with it.
