Our President is continually calling out the media for producing fake news. It is difficult to know what to believe these days. People are asking the question, “what is truth”. That is the question Pilate asked Jesus (John 18:37-38). Jesus told Pilate “The reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me”. What is our source of truth? Is it the media or the Bible? Many people are living in fear because of the information they are getting through the media. Jesus tells us in this verse that He came to bring us truth. I’m so thankful we have God’s Word to go to when we face difficulties. We know that He will never lead us astray.
In the past several weeks we have been taken out of our comfort zones. We have been faced with many new and difficult questions concerning the truth about life, health, our jobs, our worship services and many other things we have come to take for granted. Jesus said” I am the way the truth and the Life” (John 14:6). Let’s commit ourselves to spend time daily in His word and in prayer during these difficult times. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. (John 8:32)
