Know the Truth

Today I read Deuteronomy 30:4-33:3 and John 8:25-9:23. My favorite verses are:

Deuteronomy 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.

John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

God is a God of truth; Jesus told us that knowing the truth will make us free. To know God is to be free from the power of sin in our lives. If we seek God and obey God, we can live an abundant life with joy and peace. God is a God of judgment; but if we are living in His will, we do not need to fear that judgment—it will be for our enemies. If there is ever a disagreement between us and God, God is right and we are wrong. God is perfect; we are not. We must learn to bow to His truth and justice and be very grateful that it is tempered by His grace and mercy. May you know the truth today!
