The Truth Will Set You Free

"And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free" - John 8:32

We had a family trip to Sunway Lagoon today (Saturday),  driven by the excitement of Francis and Constance as a follow up of an exciting Friday afternoon visit to the same lagoon. They saw the new Nikelodeon Lost Lagoon which introduced several new exciting slides.

Something happened when we are all ready to experienced the slides. Constance and Francis, stops for a while and said, I think I am not going to do it.

The fear of walking through something new creeps into their minds and somehow conquered their excitements and desires.

It took a short while trying to support their decision while also encourage them to try it;  trying to tell the truth that, it is not scary but fun.

Constance did it and proclaimed she had fun, the excitement is back. She even did it several times, over and over again.

Francis chose to do it some other time, a decision which we all respect. He delays his experience of fun. He delays his own goals.

It is interesting how the truth, can, not only to set us free (from uncertainty, from fear), is also helps us to "un-delays" our experience, our goals.

Jesus is the way, he is the truth and the light. In Him and with Him, is the only way to achieve our desires, our experiences of life and our goals.

In Jesus, we can be free.
