Love Tells the Truth

I’ve said this to myself so many times:

Remember, Andrew, you are forgiven. You’re loved by your Heavenly Father. There is a purpose for your life.

I have to remind myself of these truths because I’m prone to wander. I wander away from the mercy of God. And easily get discouraged and miss out on the gifts and the thriving life that He has for me, unless I allow those truths to correct my thinking.

And the best friends in my life also remind me of the truth. When I forget who I am, they remind me of who God made me to be. And if I ever make excuses for my bad behavior. Believe me, they’re right there, holding up a mirror so I can see the truth about myself and my actions. And they point me back to the truth of God. 

Think about the friends in your life who don’t yet know the truth about Jesus. You know the truth of what awaits them in a life without God.

Will you do the loving thing for your friends and share God’s truth with them? 

Remember, there is always hope with God.

Ephesians 4:15

“We will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church.”
