Straighten The Bend In The Road
Will it be: “Oh please, the world is falling apart around you and you can stand there and say you didn’t know!” Or: “It would be hard for anyone to want to believe the truth. But now that you see it is true, I believe you will do what’s right.”
At the point that we become aware of the truth, it is then that we must act on it. Straighten the bend in your own road and then help your neighbor to travel on a better path.
Inspired by John 7:25-30
Now some of the people of Jerusalem were saying, “Is not this the man whom they are trying to kill? And here he is, speaking openly, but they say nothing to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that this is the Messiah? Yet we know where this man is from; but when the Messiah comes, no one will know where he is from.” Then Jesus cried out as he was teaching in the temple, “You know me, and you know where I am from. I have not come on my own. But the one who sent me is true, and you do not know him. I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.” Then they tried to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.
