The Better Way: Do Not Lie | Nic Kimmance

Honesty is not just a moral standard. It is the foundation of every meaningful relationship and a reflection of who God is. Most of us lie not because we are bad people, but because we fear that the truth about us will not be enough. We want to be accepted, approved of, and seen as capable, so we construct versions of ourselves designed to earn what we are afraid we do not already have. But the gospel tells a different story. God already knows everything about us and still loves us completely. When that truth takes root, the need to perform or deceive begins to lose its grip. Living with integrity means letting our yes be yes and our no be no, trusting that we are already enough in Him.
