Truth must be proved. That is the foundation we get to build on...truth must be proved by each of us personally for our own personal good.
Whatever WOW words we hear coming from another's lips, to memorize them and repeat them by rote is to never have them for our own. To commit the guiding words of an angel to memory and not put them to use (to let them lie fallow) is to live a fear- (and self-) filled life.
He goes before me to make the crooked places straight. Those are just so many words if we don't set out on the path we're dreading that made us remember and repeat those words to begin with. He can't make a crooked place straight for us if we refuse to use our own efforts to walk that path. Mainly...and here's the point...the crooked place is already straight.
We can't discover that without moving our own self forward through it. In our moving forward we realize it is God's feet doing the walking, God's eyes doing the seeing, God using our best efforts to bring us to the place we need to be. We prove it by doing it.
Truth must be proved. It's akin to holding your nose and taking a leap of faith.
Thank you.
