Preach it, Ryon

Image result for pictures of truth

Today's Daily Lesson comes from Isaiah 59 verse 15:

"Truth is lacking,
and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey."

In our time when everything is doubted or at least doubtable and "facts" and "alternative facts" compete and what the media reports is disputed by the government and vice versa, everyone on every side now wonders with Pontius Pilate, "What is the truth?"

And the one who does not automatically accept the party line, the one who keeps questioning the presented facts, asking for and weighing the evidence, and refuses to deny it simply because it is either inconvenient or discomforting or departs from the party line, this is the one who separates himself or herself from the group and therefore subjects himself or herself to the wolves.

Pray then now for those with the courage on every side who will dare to risk their own positions, and careers, and acceptance, and even livelihoods for the sake of the Truth. They will be rare; and they will be necessary.

~Ryon Price, 2nd Thoughts
