Colossians 3:9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds

What is the easiest thing to do when things go wrong? Do you crawl up in a ball and say nothing or do you start telling lies? What do you do?

It is very easy to make up an answer here which will suit your circumstance and say that everything is OK, but this is not what God wants us to do.

When we turn to Him He wants us to turn away from those easy options and start living with the truth in our lives.

It is not always easy to live as a Christian but we need to try – ask God to help you along the way…

Galatians 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.

Oh for a world where we would all be able to know the truth of Christ and to know how much God loves us.

Instead we seem to want to do all we can to try and lift up our own ways and our own wants before lifting up the truth.

It is not all about what religion we belong to nor which church building we attend nor which day we go to worship God on.

It is all about knowing Christ came to seek and to save the lost. It is all about knowing Christ is our Saviour. It is all about knowing Christ!

1 Corinthians 2:4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power

What is it you think would make you wise? Is it the gaining of superior knowledge or the demonstration of said knowledge?

I think the ability to demonstrate your knowledge is very important, but would learning and demonstrating all the wrong things be any good?

We can teach each other things, but when we get to the end of our knowledge, we cannot pass anything on.

What God can do is to open up our souls to new things each day and to levels of wisdom we cannot comprehend!
