Truth Asked For Carries Responsibility

 

Scripture (CJB):

“Whoever conceals sins will not prosper, but whoever confesses and abandons them will gain mercy.”

—Proverbs 28:13

 

Reflection:

There are moments when silence feels safer than truth—especially when the truth may hurt someone we love. But when truth is directly asked for, silence becomes a burden the soul was never meant to carry. God doesn’t call us to be judges, but He does call us to walk in the light. What remains hidden may protect peace for a moment, but it slowly erodes trust and freedom. The heaviness we feel is often not condemnation—it’s conviction, calling us back to the light where healing begins.

 

Encouragement:

If you’re carrying a truth that doesn’t belong to you, bring it before God in prayer and seek wisdom. Truth spoken in love is not meant to destroy—it’s meant to restore. God is near to the brokenhearted, and He honors obedience over comfort. Walk gently. Walk prayerfully. But walk in the light.
