The Truth About Truth

“Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
John 8:32 (NIV)

What if having an unchanging foundation could give you more freedom, not less?

A ship's captain navigates by the North Star because it never moves. If stars shifted nightly, no sailor would reach their destination. Yet our culture insists truth should be as changeable as the weather—"your truth," "my truth," whatever feels right in the moment.

This thinking sounds liberating until you need solid ground. When someone steals from you, suddenly the absolute truth about theft matters. When someone lies to hurt you, the objective truth about honesty becomes essential. Without fixed reference points, our lives and society crumble into chaos.

But God's Word provides what our culture desperately needs: unchanging truth. The Ten Commandments aren't suggestions that curve toward popular opinion—they're timeless principles from an unchanging God. What He calls right remains right. What He calls wrong stays wrong.

Here's where you can experience freedom: When you anchor your life in God's truth, you're not tossed by the wind of other people’s opinions. You have a reliable compass for your decisions, your relationships, and your values. While others may drift in uncertainty, you stand on bedrock.

When facing choices today, try asking: "What does God's Word say?" His truth doesn't limit you—it liberates you to live with confidence and purpose.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for the solid foundation of Your unchanging truth. I’m so grateful I can build my life on your sure foundation. Help me anchor my life in Your Word and find freedom in Your ways. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
