always speak your truth

Sorry everyone but the system was down so it took me back a few days.  I hope all is well and if that ever happens again, which it rarely does, please use that time to reflect on God's word and pray for guidance.  Thank you and please see the wisdom below:

It’s very important to speak our truth and have integrity within ourselves and with others.  Sometimes when we interact with others, it can have a negative or a positive impact.  It’s all about how the other person receives the information or how they interpret what we’re saying or doing.  However, when we handle ourselves with integrity, we always win because we’re doing what’s appropriate to do with good intentions and its’ not our job to worry about how the other person with take information or actions because we don’t have control over how people receive information. Its’ also good to have integrity towards others because we don’t know what the other person is going through and it’s always important to be cautious and sensitive to other people’s feelings or whatever they are dealing with at the time.
 
Sometimes we tend to act according to what the situation is and sometimes it gets to be political.  We should never be afraid to speak our truth because we’re here to build The Body Of Christ not weaken The Body.  In life, we all make mistakes and that’s the part of growing in wisdom but we have to learn from our mistakes and at the same time have faith that God is guiding us to do what’s needed for the Body of Christ.  Sometimes it may feel like we’re losing but whenever we do what’s right, we always win and we’re strengthening The Body.
 
This journey is all about preparing ourselves for eternal life and Jesus didn’t say it was going to be easy actually, He said pick up the cross and walk with Me. That means sacrifice and sometimes pain but within all of that, comes peace and joy.  Thank you Lord.
 
If you’re ever in a situation and you don’t know what to do or if you think your actions will hurt you by speaking the truth, don’t caught up with what you think will happen because God is here with us and He will work it out.  If you don’t speak your truth, someone else will try and do it for you and it’s never accurate when someone else is saying things that involves you. It’s all about integrity and when we speak our truth, we’re giving the other person a chance to listen to God’s words of wisdom, they benefit, and we benefit as well by respecting them and listening to what they have to say. Remember people help us and we help people.
 
It’s very important to treat people the way we would want to be treated because in the end, that’s what we’re called to do.   Again, we don’t have control over people’s actions but we do have control over what we do and when we walk our path with good, intentions, speak our truth we give hope to the world. 
 
Amen and Amen
