Ever been completely convinced and completely wrong? We live in a world with many views, opinions, agendas, motivations and freedom to reach others with social media. Millions with thousands of likes, subscribers and much data without filters are accountability. This can be dangerous when everything we agree to be acceptable or OK is not necessarily good for any of us. We have all made poor choices and bad decisions some live to regret them others may not. This age of following, sharing, and promoting personal agendas has assets and liabilities. We get to hide who we really are and present our dreams and fantasies without threat of exposure or taking responsibility for our blunders, I submit we do unto others as we would want them to do unto us. Honesty really is a virtue and contrary to popular belief truth is an advantage not a disadvantage.

Our world seems so hard to navigate these days.  It feels like nothing is trust worthy.  I mean even water and food is questionable.  We so need a return to truth as  an option.  Truth in lending, speaking, marketing, spending.  How about truth on the job, in the home, to our children.   One would think truth illegal or a disadvantage the way we choose lies as the default choice.   I’m about to start  my second installment of, “Lies That Steal Life” and I am looking for those who have  read the first book and would like to share a testimony or comment.   The second bo0k will update some of the original material and expand on some to bring us to where we all are now .  In need of Truth to get us to a better place.  Come join with me in a journey to identify and embrace Truth.

Coming to the end of 2015 hope we were able to see and enjoy the good things that happened.  Pray we were victorious in every challenge.  Believe we will proceed with faith and determination to see the goodness of God while we live.  So many of us are ensnared by lies we tell, believe, promote, and agree with.  Santa is a perfect example of deliberate promotion and agreement with  a real life true story that became a fable and is now a legend of international proportions.  Am I against Santa not the legend but the tales full of magic and mayhem that compels us to lie to our children.  We are hiding, tricking making ever more elaborate stories with movies and books that are all, “family friendly” but steeped in untruth.  This is not to judge or criticize any family tradition, favorite show, or personal choice.  I simply make the observation that we tend to embrace and propagate lies and agree together to approve them for ourselves and our children.  The point is many embrace and approve Santa but reject and attempt to out law Jesus.  Santa was a good man who walked through some real bad weather to give gifts and hope.  Jesus came to give His life to give us a way out of the penalty for sin and an opportunity to spend eternity with Him.  We tell tales about all dead people going to heaven and good people get in for being good.  The truth is Jesus is the way we get in and we have to embrace His way to get there.  I present this now to offer my readers the greatest gift ever given and another opportunity to see and embrace truth.  We can see by the news our world has changed in some not so good ways.  It is not going back to some time before but forward to what comes next.  We make great effort to prepare for holidays, shopping sprees,  and gatherings with family and friends.  I recommend we prepare for eternity with even greater zeal to secure ourselves and families for the truth about what happens next.   See Why Jesus.

Most mistakes are not fatal.  If you have made some and survived,  celebrate, get over fail ability it does not trump survivability. Failure is not final.  The greatest lesson to learn is, do not quit, choose to try again. What you learn from mistakes and failures you never forget and they serve to increase the chances for success.  Delay is not denial.   Patience and perseverance are both virtues that many today think are antiquated.  I wrote in one of my books, “defeat only needs our agreement to succeed but so does victory.” To quit results in failure.  Never again agree, that you are a failure or looser, choose to resist that lie. No matter who says it or even if you feel it; resist the temptation to agree with anything that immobilizes or thwarts your potential. Those who live through the hard times and learning seasons will experience the truth.  To persevere has great reward, so reject lies to get to see and live  the truth.

I have several  request for more details on the, Lies Chat comments.  It would be easier if you ask on a specific subject so I can respond.    If you have kindle maybe you can read the table contents free on Amazon and pick a topic to discuss.   You can also submit a comment with the heading and date you most want to know more about and I will expand.  It is a lot of material to attempt to expand without further direction from those who want to know more. Other wise  the  books have descriptions you can choose topics and subjects to help me target the subject of most interest to you. I want to  accommodate my readers so please specify.   I will do my best  to respond timely to  your request .

So much is going on in our world today and we are experiencing some real bad fall out from some choices we have made.  In the book, “Lies That Steal Life” there are many examples of how lies bind us to not only untruth but to spiritual consequences of embracing lies.    Most will never believe that the rejection of God in the public has anything to do with the changes in our society.  in , “Lies That Steal Life,” are many analogies of how our uniformed choices have consequences.   The pledge outlawed in school now guns and gangs rule.  The mention of God an offense in public we have not noticed that as we reject God we get chaos and the favor and protection we lived with since our inception is being systematically striped from us.  We must return to God to stop this downward spiral.  He is our only hope.  Join me in prayer to rebuild the hedge for this great nation.

Surprised at no comments on the subject of secrets. When I was younger I thought I had good secrets. Things mama did not know that I was hoping she would never  find out. Those things like sneak outs when she was asleep were empowering to a child but also a source of anxiety and other dangers I could have run into out there. There were also the already bad secrets that I wanted her to know but was afraid to tell. Secrets really do protect villians rather than victims

Do you have a personal example of a lie that held your life in negative status until you discovered the truth.  Please share.
