How honest are you? Do you tell the truth even if it doesn't benefit you? The real test to your answer is time. Truth trumps every time. Pretty soon your character begins to take shape and over time you are either known for telling the truth or being a liar. Your heavenly Father takes pleasure when you are honest and you bring glory to His name when you set an example.

James tells us that the source of ruin in our relationships is often a very different kind of fire. He wrote, “The tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body” (James 3:6). Those strong words remind us how damaging unguarded words can be to those around us.

Paul reminds us that as followers of Jesus, our lives are like letters “known and read by all men; . . . an epistle of Christ . . . written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God” (2 Cor. 3:2-3). What is the story that those around us are reading through the letter of our lives? Stories of forgiveness? Compassion? Generosity? Patience? Love? If you’ve experienced the joy of a grace-filled life that comes from the Spirit of God in you, then welcome to the joy of being one of God’s great storytellers!

Help me, dear Lord, to be honest and true. In all that I say and all that I do; Give me the courage to do what is right to bring to the world a glimpse of Your light.

Remember, love and friendship don’t hurt. Lying, cheating and screwing with people's feelings and emotions hurts. Never mess with someone's feelings just because you're unsure of yours. Always be open and honest.

Don’t tell half-truths and expect people to trust you when the full truth comes out. Half-truths are no better than lies.
