At various points in our lives we are confronted with the decision to choose the exhausting path for truth and justice or the easy path of agreement and compromise. It is at those times we should reflect on what our choices will declare about our character.
In revisiting Dr. King’s ‘But If Not’ sermon featured in the last episode, I am encouraged on my own path for truth and justice, no matter the inconvenience or costs. We should all be willing to stand for truth because, as in the example King cited, we have the biblical illustration of the three thrown into the fiery furnace and what came from holding true to their convictions.
Because they - in the face of their own tormenting death - remained unwavering, not only were they unharmed but enjoyed in such time the presence of the Lord. This account serves as a caution and guide to each of us in such times of decision.
Truth is not alway convenient and compromise is not always righteous. Yet our principles must be incorruptible, believing that the Most High will always be our Companion.
