TAKING A BREAK - WILL BE BACK SHORTLY
The truth cannot be buried
There is a very well known scripture in John 8. It reads, “Then you will know the
truth, and the truth will set you free.”
There is nothing you can do to the truth. Many attempts to silence it. Others try to
hide it. But in the process of time, eventually, almost always, will the truth
resurface; in our personal lives, our nation, in the world, anywhere and
everywhere. The truth is simple but powerful. It will always find its way out, and it
will always prevail. The best thing we can do is to align ourselves to the truth.
Currently, there are various developing stories in the news and daily we hear new
evidence, and speculation, surfacing. The US elections are submerged in
controversy and allegations of a flawed election. Then, in South Africa, we have
the ongoing The Judicial Commission of Inquiry into Allegations of State Capture,
also known as the Zondo Commission. I am following it closely and it is
disgraceful and shocking to see how witnesses, appearing in front of the
commission, become so flustered by all their fabricated lies that they won’t even
know the truth even if it is presented to them on a silver platter. There are many
examples I can bore you with, but the truth is something very few still appreciate
and pursue. The truth will eventually come out, it will resurface. Stephanie Klein
said, “Tell the truth, or someone will tell it for you.”
Famous television Judge, Judge Judy, always says that if you tell the truth, then
you don’t have to have a good memory. Similar words to those of Mark Twain.
Politics are often covered with lies. Hardly ever do politicians deliver on their pre-
election promises. Politicians are somehow masters at covering up the truth
about some past deeds. There are countless stories of the infidelity of celebrities
and role models in our society. What was covered up, in the process of time, was
eventually uncovered. You see, the truth cannot be buried; it’s too powerful to be
buried.
Don't let the truth destroy you. The truth is meant to set you free. Do what is right
so you will not need to cover up your tracks.
In closing, let me share the words of Henry David Thoreau, American naturalist,
essayist, poet, and philosopher, who said, “Rather than love, than money, than
fame, give me the truth.”
