The truth will set you free

To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” - John 8:31-32

Amen, Jesus!!

What is this truth that Jesus speaks of? I think it's Love. I think the truth is living in alignment with your spirit, which is made up of love. It's who we are at the core of our being. I live in alignment with my spirit by honouring my authentic self. I ask God/the Universe to guide me and I follow my intuition.   

The truth is not found in taking the easy way out. Following your truth can be very difficult at first. In my experience, God's will starts out hard and gets easy, whereas MY will starts out easy and gets hard.

That's when faith and trust in God's plan comes into play. When we can trust that something of value is being worked out within us, even if we can't see or comprehend the end result, that's faith. Clarity does not come until we have learned the lesson that God wants to teach us. The more and more that I trust God's plan is better than mine, the more I am exercising my faith and it becomes easier to just rely on God, rather than question Him.

One of my favourite quotes from A Course In Miracles is as follows:

"What could you not accept, if you but knew, that all events, past, present and to come, are gently planned by One Whose only purpose is your good?"

When I surrender and live in alignment, I am one with God. When I am one with God, I am allowing the truth to set me free.

Short and sweet today because it really is that simple.

I honour my truth, which in turn allows me to honour yours.

With Love,
