Truth is not something I create to serve my agenda.  Rather, truth is something created to save me from my agenda.

If the truth gets in the way, I will remove it. But truth be told, removing the truth never removes the truth.

To live a lie may allow us to avoid the truth, but the real lie lays in believing that we can avoid the truth in the first place.

Truth speaks for itself if we’d just let it speak.

Such is the power of truth that even the slightest whisper of it can handily drown out the most boisterous of lies, which may explain why in many instances God only needs to whisper.

To ‘pretend’ is to say that I’m willing to waste the precious energy that it takes to pretend, and I’m unwilling to cultivate the bravery that it takes to be real. And I am at a complete loss to pretend that either of these aren’t true.

Apathy is unconditional surrender where we are driven into hiding by unrealistic fear, and firmly held there by the misinformed belief that we are helpless to do anything other than hide. Therefore, apathy survives solely on lies and can be completely abated by truth.

The problem with the truth is that it will demand everything of us, but in the end it will give everything to us. If we make it ‘relative’ it will demand nothing of us, but in the end it will take everything from us.
