Milk Toast Truth

"The danger we have is that we want to water down what Jesus said to make it mean something that aligns with our common sense." (Oswald Chambers)

It's not easy to accept and obey what goes contrary to my view of the world. My personal view is just that --- personal. Sure, others may see things the way I do, but that doesn't mean we see or live Truth. Truth is truth. It either is or isn't. There is no such thing as "your truth" and "my truth." If our truths contradict each other then one or both of us is not speaking Truth. We're speaking milk toast truth --- a watered down version of truth. Without ultimateTruth, life is merely chaos and randomness temporarily brought/forced into some sort of structure by our own design. That would make me god of my life, and heaven knows, my common sense is not always the best. I'll take real Truth over experiential truth. It's not always the easier path, but the ground underneath is a sure foundation and not sinking sand.

Now if I can just get my mind and actions to line up with my desire to live by Truth.
