How do you know truth when you hear it?

Morning: Psalms 46, 97; Isaiah 52:7-10; Revelation 21:22-27

Evening: Psalms 96, 100; Matthew 12:14-21

I searched long and hard for a path that I could follow with integrity. Strident voices made extravagant claims about political change; impatient voices fell silent when they encountered difficulties; religious charlatans twisted and perverted faith beyond recognition.  But about Jesus they said, “He will proclaim justice to the nations. He won’t yell or raise his voice, there’ll be no commotion in the streets. He won’t walk over people’s feelings, or push people into a corner. His justice will triumph. Even the sound of his name will signal hope.” – Now that was the path for me … still is.
