TRUST AND TRUTHFULNESS

Everyone needs someone around them that will tell them the truth.   You have three friends and asked them the same negative question about yourself.  But only one friend told you the truth, knowing the truth may jeopardize the friendship, then you have only one true friend.   A friend that speaks the truth can be trusted with your life.  Ask King Nebuchadnezzar, read the book of Daniel and you will understand the imperativeness of telling the truth and obeying God’s laws over man’s laws.  Daniel was a God fearing man and would put nothing or anyone before God and the truth.  Daniel honesty gave him much favor with the King’s of this world and God.

 Lord, we ask for an overwhelming confidence and trust in Your divine mercy.  Father, give us the truthful and trustworthy heart as Your servant Daniel had and the courage to accept the sufferings which bring immense goodness to our souls and Your kingdom.  Help us to love You with a pure and contrite heart, and humble us at Your feet.  Father, teach us to carry our cross no matter what the cost, so that we may receive Your heavenly glory.  Lord, we are bombarded every day with actions of people that misuse trust and honesty.  So we pray that our family and friends are not victims of crimes where trust and truth are violated.  Father, search us, and know our hearts and remove any grievous way in us, in Jesus name Amen.
