The Power of Honesty

Greetings to all. This weekend, let's take some time to calm our minds and release anything that makes prayer feel like a struggle.

These days, we often try to be strong for the people we care about. When someone asks how we are, we quickly say, "I'm good," "fine," or "OK." But it's okay not to feel okay, and it's important to be honest about how we really feel.

Jeremiah 17:9 (ASV)

9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt: who can know it?

Lesson: Not everyone who asks how we feel truly wants to know. Sometimes, it's just a polite greeting. But when I ask you now, I really mean it. In one word, how does your heart feel right now? For me, it's “HOPEFUL.” Now it's your turn.
