So what is a white lie? This is what the definition of it is… a minor or unimportant lie, especially one uttered in the interests of tact or politeness. Let us as believers be careful to guard our hearts and mouths that we do not proclaim lies to avoid dealing in God’s truth in a matter.
I have heard it said before that the thing about telling lies is that you better remember exactly how you told it or you will get caught. There is so much freedom in being truthful to others and most importantly being true to yourself. One of my most favorite quotes that I feel is an excellent one to live by was by William Shakespeare.
“This above all: to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.”
Today I encourage you to embrace truth in your heart. You know…God in heaven has promised to keep His Word and He never lies. He never changes and He is dependable. TRUTH is such a liberating way to live! Let us look to Him to teach us to walk in truth in every area of our life.
“The Lord will keep all His promises (is faithful/true in all His words.” Psalm 145:13
