And the Truth Shall Make You Free

There is power in the "spoken" word.

Deep inside of us lies much we would rather no one else know. Deep inside, we hide things about ourselves and our family members that we are too afraid to say out loud. Too afraid that if others know, they will look down upon us, that we will be embarrased and feel ashamed in front of them. In our pathetic minds, somehow we think IF we don't actually say the words out loud, then it really isn't true and we won't have to face the ugliness of it if we don't speak it aloud.

But, there is great power in the spoken word. Admitting the sins we struggle with, asking for specific prayer regarding specific issues in our lives, THIS is the beginning of wisdom and truth.

None of us stand alone, we are all sinners. We need to pray for each others needs and the only way we can pray specifically for each others needs, is to know them. We must put our fears of rejection and shame aside and share what lies hidden inside of us and beg peoples prayers.

AND THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE......Truth.....admitting it and asking for prayer will make you free.
