A joyful heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the spirit. Proverbs 15:13, TLV
What is Real? Can we be real? Wherever we are emotionally, physically, and spiritually — and financially — is a fact. Whether we’re in a good place or bad place, we need to be honest with ourselves. Happy or depressed. Victorious or defeated. Peaceful or anxious. Being real is the first step to joy. Really.
Even though the facts are before us, it doesn’t always mean they are the truth. The facts are temporal, even whimsical. The truth is eternal.
What is Truth?
What is the truth? You probably already know, but it’s worth remembering.
Our Heavenly Father is the Creator of the Universe and He is sovereign. GOD is love, therefore, He loves us. He has already seen the outcome of these days — these facts — and He’s not intimidated or worried. Our Abba — our Daddy — is our only hope for lasting joy, peace, and victory.
Whatever our circumstances, we can abide in that eternal truth, and that triumphs over facts every time.
