The Truth

Mark Miller

Sep 29, 2024

To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my
disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32 NIV

He struggled with depression that filled his mind with many thoughts that simply were
not true. “I am worthless.”. “Nobody cares about me.” “I will never get better.” Prayer,
counseling and medicine all helped some, but it wasn’t until attending church on Easter
and hearing the Good News of new life in Jesus that things really turned around.

Jesus refers to himself as the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). In him we find the
truth that sets us free. In him we find the ability to identify the lies we tell ourselves, and
instead speak his truth into our hearts and minds.

My heart was filled with joy when I saw the power of Jesus’ truth break through the lies
that Easter morning and restore a wounded soul to life. His story is not the only
example. Jesus is doing that every day. There is new life in Jesus – even for you – no
matter what lies you have believed in the past. That’s the truth, and the truth will set
you free.
