‘The Lord detests lying lips but He delights in men who are truthful.’ Proverbs 12:22
Most people like a stick of rock, maybe one which has the words Brighton Rock or Blackpool Rock all the way through. Whichever end you start eating it, it has the lettering right through. Can you imagine what we would think if the words ceased to be there before we got to the end. We would feel cheated Things would not be like they seemed.
How often things are like this, the large box of chocolates which is mostly wrapping or a free toy which did not work. Life can be a disappointment for us at any age, not just for as child with a stick of rock.
We are never disappointed with God. He is genuine through and through. There is no hidden agenda with Hm, nothing missing. We are never short-changed’, just the opposite, He gives the cup running over with undeserved blessings. He is loving and faithful right to the end. What one reads and hears about God is genuine. When God says ‘I love you,’ He means it through sickness and health, life and death. So much in this life cannot be believed, truth is no longer truth. Give praise to our everlasting God that He is completely trustworthy and the same right through.
