Reality does not guarantee TRUTH

Though what's happening in our lives are realities of life still its not the truth.
So we must be more seeker of truth and not of what life can offer you.
Though reality shows that we cannot overcome some things in our life but truth is we can if we just trust God...even if it is impossible to achieve the impossible truth is it is possible to achieve it with him.
Though reality of life shows people go and come in our lives and nobody stays permanent nowadays...truth is if there is a commitment relationship, family and love will be preserve under God's protection.
Reality maybe visible and tangible but it doesn't mean it is always correct.
Hope you guys will seek deeply to find truth.
God bless.

The truth is life is never the same for anyone. We each have our own lives to live. And lives vary from where you come from too. Few are born with a silver spoon. Many are born to be forever in swaddling clothes. For those blessed with understanding, carpe diem.

Though people are born in different level of life in financial status, we all have the same denominator and that is God, no matter how poor or reach we are we all have the same burden to overcome and no matter how the difference it may seems it will be judge the same and fair, and that is how we stand by our faith in Him, and how we look at God after we went through, do we hate him as we fall, or do we love him more and trust him more and we continually increased our faith and not by sight.
Reality may seem as if it is the truth but as we lose our faith in God deceptions lies behind it. Hope you won't take it as if I m against you but, I wrote back to show God's ways in the bible in our lives. God bless you.

luisa, I know what you mean. The faith holds! I am just pointing it out that the truth is, there are millions of children who go hungry each day, and still they sleep without eating each night. Reality check, the world's elite could feed these starved and dying creatures. Perhaps philanthropy is a thing of the past. The rich should really share their food with the poor. When they do that, then they have seized the day!

Very interesting discussion :D....as we can see from our responses, each of us have our own "truth" which is based upon perception, our past experiences and thoughts..based upon our own realities. No matter how you feel about God, or on what you base your life, individuals will always have their own reality.
I was at a meeting once standing next to a person I know, listening to the same speaker, say the same thing, at the same time. This person and I each had a different opinion/conclusion/summary of what the speaker had said. So if you asked either me or the person I know what had transpired at the meeting, you would have received two different answers...two different realities...two different truths.
This applies across the board, because I believe that God gave us free will, and that applies to how we interpret truth.
Thanks for this dicussion!

Yeah it seems like it, but you know we must not base the truth by our own opinions and understanding we must base it on how God sees it, only the truth that is in Christ Jesus can save us from a lot of heart aches that will never gained any good thing, You know seeking the truth about ourselves are found only in God, even if we suffer under his care I can tell you it will gained something worthy. Though we have freewill still God is looking in to our hearts, if we will still chose him and depend on him 100%, he wants all of us not partial. Hope this will not take a bad impression from you.
God want us to depend on him because no one knows what it best for ourselves even we cannot give satisfaction and know what we want but God knows the depts of our douls because he is the one who create you.
The creator of Computer are the only person who know every single detail of his invention. Same us with God.
But in trying out something to achieve some goal we need different ideas but it should have one goal and that it make great things that the name of the Lord should be exalted more than ever!

Nice point there. But searching for truth means searching for reasons. And we must not or can not question the existence of God or life itself. I know I did and I got lost. Now I'm just slowly taking everything as it is. Truth must only be as real as you and me. Only the reality as we see it exists. And so with the help of God may we see reality the way He wanted us to see it.

Amen! Hehehehe! Yes, just continue seek God and his words and we will never go astray we will be hurt yes, but we will never lost our ways. Never believe what the reality of this world offer but believes to the reality of the existing and living God.
God Bless. Aja! May God bless you more in everything you will do and in every decision may you seek his kingdom first and everything that concerns you will be God's first priority. God bless you.
In Psalm 33:9 Fear the Lord, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing.
In Psalms 33:10 ...those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
