What is truth? How can I find it? "Truth is knowledge of things as they are, and as they were, and as they are to come." (Doctrine and Covenants 93:24) "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (John 8:32)
This beautiful world is full of the knowledge of God. I love truth, and I know that that there are an infinite number of truths to be found in the secular and spiritual realms. They are found in the quiet voice of the spirit which promotes peace, love, joy, happiness and hope. Our Father in Heaven and His Son Jesus Christ are ever faithful to us with open arms inviting us to come and partake of their love. As we turn our hearts to the Lord we are more able to hear the voice of the Spirit who is ever ready to teach and reveal to us things that are true.
The voices of the world are loud and persistent in trying to smother us so we can not hear that still quiet voice. They murmur, whine, seduce, profess superiority, are prideful, flatter, destroy hope, lust and tempt us to crave the things of the world. Satan blinds and deceives. His whole purpose is to keep us from truth.
Truth is abundant if you have eyes to see and ears to hear. Search for it.
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him." (James 1:5)
"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you." (Matthew 7:7)
The things of God are known by the Spirit of God. Look to Him, desire to know truth and humbly ask Him to reveal it to you. I Corinthians 3:19 tells us "For the wisdom of the world is foolishness with God" and I Corinthians 2:14 tells us "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." Search with all your heart and when you find truth you will be full of peace and hope. You will feel genuine happiness. Happy hunting!
