"Therefore, laying aside falsehood, speak truth each one of you with his neighbor, for we are members of one another." -Ephesians 4:25 (NASB)
Sometimes the truth can hurt and telling it can be difficult. During those times when we must tell a difficult truth, it can be hard finding the right way to say it. When we are faced with such a situation, we need to do it in love, remembering that we are all part of one another.
We are called to be honest and truthful, both in our relationship with God and our relationship with each other. As members of the body of Christ, we are connected to one another. Doing something that hurts another member of the body can hurt the body as whole. We also need to face wrongs and not let them go unchecked and hurt the body. The best way to keep the body strong is being truthful and loving!
Be truthful with one another in love!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the Truth that is in You. Help me to always speak Your Truth in a loving way so the body of Christ can grow stronger. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
