truth

Jesus looked directly at them and asked, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written:  ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone’?  Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed”   Luke 20:17-18

truth;

from where does it come?

to where does it go?

rattling around inside,

bouncing back and forth,

like some misguided missile,

and just when you think

you have the answer,

you come to the stark,

brutal realization;

you've only scratched the surface;

truth;

so seemingly simple,

yet so profoundly complex,

separating darkness from light,

bringing dawn to the fading night,

cutting hard and deep,

with surgeon-like precision and skill,

providing comfort and mercy,

while dispensing perfect judgment

and justice;

truth is absolute,

truth is forever,

truth never changes,

truth never compromises,

truth is condemnation,

truth is salvation,

all rolled into one,

truth is the stone,

upon which everyone who falls,

will be broken to pieces,

but he on whom it falls,

will be crushed;

truth is Jesus Christ.
