We all struggle to become something.  Some gather to themselves everything they can lay their grubby little hands on; cash, fame, power, a place in society or family, wisdom, godliness (or the lack thereof), and the like.  But at the end of our gathering we realize something grand and fearsome.  Truth is.

Truth is not something we become.  We’re either in it or we’re not in it.  Regardless how we work to accomplish what we wish to be, we’ll always find ourselves in a “becoming” stage.  But truth is not like that.  It was, is, and will be absolute and complete.  This ponderous realization has given me pause to consider the greatness of God and His desire for all men to seek and find His truth.

Consider one petal of a flower.  Look at it’s beauty and count them.  Now multiply your count and consideration to include every flower petal in the world, and that from the time of creation.  Truth is.  God is.  Righteousness of God remains.

By His Grace.
