The truth shall set you free

John 8:32

And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

I have often wondered why people resist the truth, get offended by it, or just plain ignore it. I am not just talking about things of a biblical nature, but also our every day life. It seems now a days, you can't tell a friend that they have bad breath with out offending them. I believe its a good thing to be told you have bad breath. A bit embarrassing, but at least you were informed so you could change it and stop breathing your foul breath on those around you. Which brings me to the heart of the matter, change. I believe that when truth is brought out and light shed on it, it requires people to evaluate their lives and change them.What keeps people from changing? Pride.

1 Peter 5:5

for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.

So next time the truth is shed on your life, are you going to humble yourself and change or are you going to be the person with bad breath going through the world stinking it up?
