A promise about TRUTH

When you want to make honesty a hallmark of your character

Truthful words stand the test of time, but lies are soon exposed. PROVERBS 12:19

It can make you untrustworthy and cause you to lose your friends, your spouse, your home, or your job. It can even land you in jail. Ultimately, a lifestyle of dishonesty pits you against the God of truth, who doesn’t allow dishonest people into his eternal Kingdom. That is why practicing honesty is so important. .

How are you tempted to be dishonest in your everyday life? What are some ways you can be honest in those situations instead?
