Week Three Day Five Making it Personal Honesty With Others
Ephesians 4:25
Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another.
I have to look at the following questions and honestly answer them.
Do I sometimes seek to create a better impression of myself than is honestly true?
Do I often leave others with the impression that I am more spiritually mature and committed than is actually true?
Am I allowing my mate to believe that I am morally pure and faithful when that is untrue?
Am I covering up sins of my past rather than dealing with them Biblically?
Am I hiding specific sins from my mate, parent, teacher or an employer?
Am I guilty of speaking graciously to others while harboring hatred or bitterness in my heart toward him?
Do I put up walls to keep people from seeing the "real me"? Am I willing to let others into my life-to be honest about my spiritual needs, to ask for prayer about those needs, and to be accountable to others for areas where I need to grow and change?
I am guilty in all areas, more in some and less in others. I need to refer to the questions often and make corrections as needed
