Today’s Word from God’s Word-Honesty

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Word from God’s Word is Honesty.

Truthfulness is the foundation of honest words and expressions.

Proverbs 12:17 brings this word of wisdom to light: “An honest witness tells the truth, but a false witness tells lies.”

To be a credible witness of the Gospel, we need to be honest with each other about who God is and how God is working in our lives. We all have room for growth, and it is okay to admit that we don’t have it all together.

Proverbs 24:26 tells us that “an honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.” That means that honesty is key to building stronger, healthier, more intimate relationships. The New Testament teaches that as we speak the truth in love, we will grow in every way more and more like Christ. Strong relationships are built from the seeds of honesty.
