When Your Truth Isn't God's Truth

"I think we live in a "truth desert." We live in a world where thoughts like "What's true for you may not be true for me" exist. We live in a world where thoughts like "I'm just living out my truth" — that's a normal thought. Truth — real truth … absolute truth — is becoming more and more scarce. And our world is living off of processed truth, unhealthy truth — truth without nutrition or value. Truth that won't actually sustain. It may satisfy your hunger for a time, but it won't give you what you're looking for. In a world that we live in today where truth has become far more limited, where truth is much harder to find, here's a big statement that's going to ruffle some feathers: Your truth doesn't matter if it doesn't match Jesus’ truth. Your truth isn't important if it isn't Jesus’ truth. You can press your opinion; you can have an idea; you can lean in to what you say is true for you; but if it doesn't match His truth, then it's like living off of processed and unhealthy options. It's going to satisfy you for a little bit, but it's going to bring health issues in the future; it isn't going to accomplish what you want in the long term."
