Honesty

"Political correctness is the greatest problem in the church today."

Give me wisdom and Your Holy Spirit, not to be politically correct but to say the right thing at the right time with power. Let me not be so afraid of what people will say, because not everyone is going to like me anyway, and even if I do my best to please everyone, I might not please You.

I'm learning how to be honest. I resolved to be completely honest in my sharing with the Christian fellowship today. And to be completely honest with people from now on.

I will not say something is alright in my life if it isn't. I will not hide something from a friend should they ask. I will be direct. And I will not pretend or play games with people. I will say what I mean and mean what I say.

So shared my heart out with the Christian fellowship today. It felt good to be honest. It felt good that I was being myself.

Help me to be real, because that's the only way I can grow.

"An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips." (Prov 24:26)
