How do I follow truth in a post truth world?

The world around us is in a state of confusion over truth. Truth in the 21st century has become relative, based on preference and experience. What may be true for me, may not be true for you. Today's truth is often shaped by an over saturation of media exposure. The cascading result of this is disagreements, quarrels, and fallout of morality. If we human beings don't have a solid foundation to base our lives on, we will forever be in conflict of interests.

A river without banks is a puddle. If we are to move forward in life with truth in our hearts, we must have an anchor in truth.

When ships navigate in narrow channels, they use a technique called dredging anchor. What they basically do is drop the anchor ahead of the ship and pull themselves closer to the anchor. Jesus for us is the Anchor. He is the Truth. He exercised truth and as His followers, we are asked to do so, irrespective of how the world defines truth. When temptation strikes, when immorality is all you see as examples, when you’re at the verge of speaking the slightest lie to save yourself, pull closer to Jesus. Revel in His truth and see the difference that makes. We mustn't put our faith in the trends of today, but rather in the God of timeless tomorrow.

Prayer:

God anchor me in the truth and help me stand strong in my faith and in your word. May my ears be sensitive to the truth and my hands and feet be quick to follow in the path of truth. Guide me Lord. Amen.
