A Planting of Faith Seeds for the Glory of the LORD
Lord, one of the most powerful things on earth I face each and every day of my life is the power of truth. As powerful, as truth is it is the consequences of denying it, distorting it, or embracing it that are far more powerful and far reaching.
Pilate knew the truth and denied it.
The people knew the truth and distorted it.
Jesus knew and the truth and embraced it.
The truthfulness of saying I am a Servant of the Most High God is not in the words but in the truthfulness of whether or not I am willing to embrace the repercussions of rolling up my sleeves and plunging myself into the lives of those are oppressed though no fault of their own with the revelation and ministry of Jesus Christ. And of equal importance is going into the lives of those who are the oppressors with the revelation and ministry of Jesus Christ.
Lord, when I look at the person looking back at me in a mirror may the revelation, ministry, and life of Jesus illuminate the truth no matter how painful it may be for me to see. To experience truth is freeing to live the truth is to be confined by the truth. We are people of the Resurrection called to be Living Witnesses of a Living Savior not a dead Jesus! If we are truly people of the Resurrection then we will be found walking the path of our Resurrected Savior.
