The White Lie Has a Father
You are of your father, the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.John 8:44
Recommended ReadingJohn 8:42-47It’s not always necessary to say all we think, for Proverbs 29:11 says, “A fool vents all his feelings.” Many things are better left unsaid, and many opinions are better left unspoken. The Bible urges us to use words with restraint, to be quick to hear but slow to speak. But when we do speak, it should be with sincere and honest openness. Never allow your words or your silence to create false impressions or deceptive conclusions. Even a little “white lie” is as black as sin.
In the short run, a little lie may seem a useful thing; and if there were no God, any old lie would do. But there is a God of truth, just as there is a devil of lies. God’s Word is truth, and His people are honest. Satan’s word is misleading, unreliable, and never to be trusted.
The language of heaven is honest truth. To defend ourselves in spiritual battles, we must be bearers of the truth.
There are no little sins without a little god; and we have a big God.Anonymous

How he came in my life!

It was a very exciting disappointed day! As we woke up with hope that Harley would be the horse of my dreams! As we drove along the hills, winding, narrow roads we came up to Harley's home! So we jumped out ran to see him and he was so beautiful to me! He had half a blue eye and was red with white spots. I thought he was the one no matter what! As we saddled him up, I hoped on him back and gaited down their dirt road and he was smooth and I fell in love on the dime! Everyone rode him some had different options then me but I had my mind set he was the one!!!!! On the way home we talked about his cons and his flaws, we already knew he had a few bad flaws like not backing out of the trailer, and a few others. After debating on getting him, we just decided not to get him.
Down the road the phone rang and it was a guy that sold us some of his horses years ago calling to see if he could bring one of his horses over that we looked at a few days before, so we agreed and when we got home we waited and waited, then the dogs barked so I shot out side like a shooting star to run to the squeaky trailer. I looked in the trailer to see what I have been wanted my whole life a black and white spotted gelding, but still my heart set on Harley I didn't think the black and white gelding would be the horse of my dreams. My mind changed the moment that black and white gelding stepped foot off the trailer I fell in love with him and I knew he was mine, but I didn't give my hopes up on him just yet! We worked with him and he was so good we started him on our Club, then he went to the lesson horse! I am so proud of that black and white horse, that is now called Elvis. He is my dream horse and I love him so much, he is such a delight to have around!
