(Prov 12:22 NKJV) Lying lips are an abomination to the LORD, But those who deal truthfully are His delight.
It can be hard to share the truth with people you love, even though you know it will help them.
At times we can be afraid to share it because we don’t know how they will take it.
There have been times when I’ve shared the truth and for a while I got the cold shoulder. It was very hurtful to me because I only did it to help, but in return I got hurt.
It could have caused me to not want to share the truth again. But remember, sometimes sharing the truth means people might not want to hear it right then. It can be an uncomfortable situation and at times it may take the person a while to see it for what it is.
Always get God’s wisdom on when, how and if we are to share it. Sometimes God will show us the truth about a situation just so that we know how to pray. Other times it is to help that person out in seeing things they may not have seen otherwise.
God has called us to love one another. If we obey Him in this then when it comes to sharing or speaking the truth it won’t be hard for us to speak the truth in love, the very way He would do it for us.
