31 Days of Free Writes: Truth

I have to say it, the biggest thing I think of when I see the word is "the truth, you can't handle the truth!" I don't even know what movie it is from or what is talking about. Just a very memorable line, one that is repeated all the time.

The truth to me is the word of God. The words written in that book are the absolute truth, written by multiple people over hundreds of years.

Knowing the truth in the words of that book is so comforting to me. I can find anything that I need within the pages of my bible. When I am depressed, I can find other people in it's pages that have gone through the same thing and read their struggles and their joy.

One of the things I love about Psalms is that you see the mood swings of David. You see the times that he is way up on cloud nine and happy and joyful. Then in the next chapters, you see him at a very low point, crying out to God. I can relate to that. There are times in my life where I feel like doing the same thing, where I do that same thing. All I can do is cry.

Truth is found in his words and I will keep right on clinging to them.
