Do not lie to one another…

Colossians 3:9

 

Put Off
Lying

 

At the bus stop near my house early in the morning, we watch the school children playing around, while we adults talk to one another. 

 

I really enjoy these moments as we socialize and ask questions: “How was your summer holiday?”  “Is your mom OK?” “Are your children enjoying school?” “Do you like your new job?”

 

Then come the many answers: “It was great!” “My mom is getting better.” “My daughter loves her teacher.” “The new job is very demanding.”

Common questions and easy answers.

 

During my quiet time I ponder these conversations. Were my questions sincere? Were my answers honest?

 

The Holy Spirit teaches me what to put off and leads me to recall Paul’s words in Colossians: Do not lie to one another. By being sincere and honest I can grow to be more like my risen Lord! 

 

Prayer: Dear Abba Father in heaven, may the Holy Spirit be a mentor for my speech. In Jesus’ name I pray.  Amen
