Truth

I have a plan for you
It will only take a lifetime to see through
I'll show you where to start
And the most that it can cost will be your heart
Give me your heart
Forever, starting now

The truth is out
And living in you now
You'll find out
You're safe now, the truth is out

I have a life for you
And I know you think you've missed your chances to
Find a happy end
And it's feeling later than it's ever been
All that you need is heaven sent

All the best for you and I'm
Here to help you with the balance
Of the low and high
Your restless heart kept still
On the centre of My perfect will
The call that you hear
You’re free to fill
A life full of
Faith, hope and love

-- "The Truth is Out" by Smalltown Poets

There is truly something to be said about God's divine timing: how this CD landed in my lap, minutes before I went for my first Philosophy lecture.

Ron Mehl wrote: "... There are certainly difficult and challenging facts you and I need to deal with every day of our lives. But there is also the truth. And if you don't take God into account, you may have the facts, but you will not have the truth."

And that's the problem. "Truth" is not truth as people think they know it.

I can understand -- I think that if my relationship with God were not what it is now -- that philosophy would be something that I would use as a compass for my life. Simply because it follows a line of logic that is deep enough for one to think it true, yet easy enough for one to apply it. But not all things can be reasoned by mere words.

My relationship with my God is, for me, as real -- if not, more real -- than the relationships I have with my mom, my dad, my sister, my brother, my friends... which, to some, is a concept that might as well be a flying pig.

They forget, that if my God is truly who He claims to be, He can make even pigs fly. It's not about making a point -- that's the best thing about truth, it will speak for itself. Let's just wait and see.
