Honesty Is Always The Best Policy!
Please contact us if you have questions or if you need some encouragement.
Honesty is a value that shines through in every aspect of our lives. When we interact with others regularly, honesty is crucial as the foundation of those relationships. However, one must also practice honesty in one’s life to demand such values from others. Honesty builds trust and helps us maintain healthy relationships, whether it be marriage or just superficial interactions.
Remember that God wants us to lead an honest life and always speak the truth no matter our situation because He knows how important this virtue is for our well-being. We can easily identify if someone is dishonest by observing how they talk and carry themselves. Still, it’s essential not only to rely on external cues but also to listen to your instincts given by God himself about that person’s character. Healthy relationships thrive when there is mutual trust and transparency between individuals involved; thus, honesty plays a key role here, too! It may be challenging sometimes for people to be honest due to various reasons like fear of rejection or judgment; however, practicing honesty pays off in the long run! So ask yourself today – Are you entirely truthful? If not so much, try trying to become more honest because nobody likes someone who isn’t straightforward! ~ Bill Greguska
Proverbs 11:1 The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with him.

Honesty Is What We All Need!
Honesty Will Always Be The Best Policy!
Promise God and yourself that you will make honesty an extremely high value in your life!
Honesty is more valuable than silver and gold! Is your honesty vital to you? We all live in a fallen world full of temptation and the original sin, which has made us all susceptible to sin.
When you choose your friends, don’t you make your choice to be friends with them if you can trust them and their honesty? Nobody wants to associate with someone who is not honest.
Is There Power With Honesty?
Honesty Is A Very Admirable Godly Trait!
We all should strive to uphold honesty in our daily interactions with others. When people are honest, it creates a sense of trust and reliability between them. It builds strong bonds of friendship and love that can stand the test of time. Moreover, honesty cultivates a certain level of respect for oneself and others. By practicing honesty, you show yourself as someone who values integrity above all else, which can set you apart from those who choose to deceive or manipulate.
Truthfulness is vital in every aspect of life – personal or professional relationships. Without honesty, there can be no healthy communication between individuals or groups. It becomes difficult to make sound decisions when one cannot rely on the information presented by another party. It takes courage to be honest sometimes; however, being truthful provides freedom from the guilt or shame that often accompanies dishonesty. So, let us always aim for honesty in our dealings with each other! Let us embrace this virtue wholeheartedly and reap its rewards – personally and within our communities. Remember: “Let your yes mean yes, and your no mean no.”
My Dad’s Honesty!
When I was a little boy, approximately seven years old, my dad found a penny on the floor at church. He put it in his pocket and took it home. It bothered him so much that he brought it back the next week. The point is that honesty does not depend on how much money or an object is taken.
My dad was always a very honest and sincere man with great integrity, even that penny he found. Honesty also involves our words and telling the truth, not half-truths or a sense of reality, but the truth. Ask yourself if your life is full of honesty, or do you spread “white lies” and justify what you say or do with blatant lies? ~ Bill Greguska

How To Be Honest Without Hurting Anyone?
How To Realize The Need For Honesty!
A= Accountability
Men should be accountable to one another.
“Two are better than one because they have a good return for their work: If one falls, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes 4: 9-12.
B= Bible
- God has shared instructions on how to live life. We can find everything by reading the Bible. Using a concordance is an excellent way to find topics you are dealing with.
- When the Bible is open, it will speak to you and your needs; when it is closed, it cannot. The Bible will help keep you from sin, but sin will keep you from the Bible.
C= Consistency
Are you one way with some of your friends and a different way with other people?
Try to be consistent in all areas of your life.
D= Do What The Bible Says.
Only if we were perfect could we always do what the Bible says, but we are not, so we can only strive for perfection with God’s help.
Jesus Christ was the only person that was perfect and sinless. Jesus died for you and me so that we might live for him.
