Identifying the Truth

By: M. Irene Louis (View Profile)

I will change names and places to ensure the protection of identity and safety of persons involved. Furthermore, I make this statement to present an even greater aspect of these writings. Though, at times, I may appear to be preachy, the one truth I know to be consistently True and non-subjective is the Word of God. When referencing Scripture or events and sermons I have witnessed I will only change again the names of persons involved and the churches or event names involved. Otherwise, references of Scripture and sermons or spiritual events I will swear to be true, hand on Bible.


So love truth and peace

Zechariah 8:19


One final note, the Biblical translations I use are varied. I prefer to use the Amplified, the NIV and the NKJV. These are the three versions I have most readily available. However, I also have the NCV which I use as my church and study Bible and the Word. I am always searching for other Bibles that inspire me to reach a greater understanding of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit among us. So it is possible that as I write I may have acquired other translations of the Bible and will do my best to make reference if a new translation is introduced.

Now, without further ado, I want to jump to the first revelation of truth I witnessed and came to believe over a year ago. My belief in this has grown exponentially over this year past. I’m wondering how many of you know who is in control of your life. Is your husband, your father, your sister, your friend in control of your life? Are you in control of your life? Maybe you even think at times your kids are in control of your life. Ask yourself that question . . .

Good point--truth is subjective and can be hard to find. But that's what makes each of us unique--our different perspectives and opinions!
It feels good to write.
