~ Truth ~

One of the Greatest and most Helpful sayings ever spoken is this: 
“Honesty is the Best Policy”. 
It's Very True. Lies and dishonesty always leads to problems and hurts for both the person lying and the person being lied to.

People think you've got away with lying and that no one will ever find out, but a lie will always find it's way out into the open and the longer it's left, the worse it gets.

Some people tell lies and then hide behind excuses that it's not really a lie, and they'll try to convince themselves and others that it's ok. This usually leads to more lies to try get out of lying, and it just gets worse and worse. 

Lies come in many forms:
- Out right lies, 
- Not telling the Full Truth, 
- Being deceitful, 
- Withholding information so that you get your own way, 
- Twisting facts around to make it sound better in your favour, 
- Trickery and misleading people, etc, etc.

All lies come from the Same Source – the devil.
Jesus made this Very Clear when He said:
“The devil speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar 
and the father of lies”.     (John 8:44). 

One of the 10 Commandments says that we should Not lie. 
There's obviously a reason for this. 
God wants us to Enjoy the Best Life Possible and He knows that if we lie, we don't fully experience the Best Life. 

If you tell a lie you then have to remember the lie and who you lied to so that you don't slip up, therefore you lose some of your Freedom. 

It also causes guilt. Even the worst people in the world know what they're doing is wrong and there is a part of everyone's brain that tells you if you do something wrong such as lying. 
You then have to fight against this in your own brain to try to convince yourself that it's ok. You end up Trapping Yourself.
~ That is Not living Freely ~

Telling the Truth 'might' sometimes cause 
some problems at the time, but the 
Benefits of Living an Honest Life 
easily outweigh the Negative effects caused by lies.

So Speak the Truth & Live In The Truth.

An Honest Life leads to Freedom 
and an Inner Sense of Peace. 
All part of living your Best Life Possible.
