A Prayer For Truthfulness

Father, in a world filled with lies and half-truths, may we stand out as a people who can be trusted in the words we say and in the actions we carry out. We thank You for Jesus who walked in grace, truth, and obedience knowing from the beginning that it would lead to death on the cross. Jesus didn’t back off His stated plan for coming to earth when the going got tough nor did He lie when He was under deadly pressure. Help us to be an honest people who tells the truth as it is, not as we or others would like it to be, when pressure is upon us. We want to honor You with our lives and with the words we speak, living as people full of grace and truth. Amen.
