John 7:45, 46 When the Temple guards returned without having arrested Jesus, the leading priests and Pharisees demanded, “Why didn’t you bring him in?” “We have never heard anyone speak like this!” the guards responded. (NLT)

Sometimes truth stops us in our tracks.

Truth sometimes feels like the card in Monopoly that says, “Do not pass GO. Do not collect $200.”

Truth reshapes every other thought and belief. It challenges weakly held positions. It reorients hearts and minds.

Jesus said the Truth sets people free. (See John 3:32.)

True freedom is knowing Jesus for who he is. It is experiencing the life he gives.

Jesus is the Way. Jesus is the Truth. Jesus is the Life. Jesus is the one and only way to heaven. (See John 14:6.)

This truth may seem narrow, but it is as broad as “Let anyone who hears this say, ‘Come,’” (Revelation 22:17).

Truth is focused and changes everything. Lies can be as broad as you want and only lead us farther from where we need to be.

Those who went to arrest Jesus were themselves arrested by Truth. Today is a good day to lock down who Jesus is to you. Today is a good day to be set free by him who is the Truth.

I will embrace the Truth.

Our Father, you are true. Your words are truth and life. Your truth stands the test of time. Your truth unlocks the door to heaven. Give us the wisdom to embrace the truth of who Jesus is and what he accomplished for us. Amen.
