Discovering Truths

Up until now I have been saying to you what Truth is and where it comes from, but the thing about Truth is that it is discoverable! Our loving God hides many of the Truths of this universe from us, and has given us charge to discovering Him through revealing Truths.

God does own this Earth, and all creatures in it. But, God has given the Earth to man to be stewards over His Creation. He has charged us to tame nature, cure the diseases and heal the sick, and discover His majesty. He wants you to come to know Him for who He really is, the one who is everything.

Truth Seekers
Many such people are given a gift to seek the Truths, for they think God to be so infinitely interesting, they treat His world as if it were a puzzle. They continue to look for more pieces as they become available. Listen to them.

Personal Truths and Prayer
Others among us find it easier to find personal Truths through prayer. They discover while being silently reverent, personal revelations about their lives and the lives of others they pray for. They may find out the answers to questions they have about life. You may ask God, "why must I suffer so?", or "why must my friend be difficult with me?" and then discover why after silent and careful thought! Pray this way I urge you, for you should want to know why your life is the way it is.

The Bible
The greatest guide and book ever written. It is full of Truths, every last page of it. For this is the best collection of Truths that mankind has ever assembled into one book. Each page and every story carries with it Truthful messages that God has given to us. You may search wide and far but you will never find a book that is so rich in Truth. Get a copy of it, read it when you feel so inclined.

Passive Prayer
You may discover Truth in simply being observant and passive. What you hear or see may at any time be a message for you. The one who really needs to hear God's voice should only open his or her eyes and ears and simply absorb life. You can do this at any time. It is a humble act to think that some of the most unlikely conversations and unusual sights you may see or be a part of are indeed Truths personally tailored for you to be discovered.

I leave you with a warning, dear friend. Cautiously check each Truth before accepting it. Simply check to see if it is consistent with whatever other Truths are known. Truths can not contradict one another. Thus, if you receive some Truth that surely is against what was written (for example) in the Bible, it really isn't a Truth at all. This may seem tiresome, but don't fret. Do the best you can to teach yourself Truths, and be cautious, that is all that can be expected.
