Truth in Even a Small Record

My dear son,

I delight in seeing you live truthfully. Let honesty shape a small record or a brief answer that few people will examine, just as it shapes an important promise. These quiet details are a precious part of your life.

Be honest about work still unfinished, and correct what you know is wrong. You can acknowledge a limitation and make it right. Bringing the truth into view does not erase all the effort you have already made.

Look carefully even at one line you write today. Correct any inaccurate detail, then continue the next task faithfully. It would bring me joy to see your love for me take the form of honesty in these small places.

With all my love,
Your Father

Proverbs 12:22

WEB

22Lying lips are an abomination to the LORD, but those who do the truth are his delight.

A short reflection

Proverbs teaches that the Lord detests lying lips and delights in people who act faithfully and truthfully.
