Fudging?




Fudging? “Don’t fudge now.” I can still remember my mom telling me to be sure that I tell the whole truth, hold nothing back and not add anything to what I was saying. Fudging was something that kids have a real knack for. Just telling enough of the truth to get by was one of those not so outstanding characteristics of childhood that most of us mastered pretty well.


Think about it. As children our “fudging” seems rather innocuous, almost harmless. We are usually caught in our exaggerations because we have so little skill in making them believable. Nonetheless, as adults “fudging” takes on a far more sinister appeal.


God’s Word tells us: “…a voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him (Mark 1:3).


Thanks be to God that His greatness is no “fudging” game. He promises and He delivers. He promised a Savior from sin and He kept that promise. God doesn’t make promises that His greatness can’t back up; and, for that matter, neither should we.


. “I pray today in Jesus name that we can rely on God to tell us the truth and then make that truth happen for us. In God there is no lie, only forgiveness, grace and love. And that’s no lie. Amen!”


“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34) www.thispassingday.com
