One Truth

Jesus answered: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”   John 14:6-7

truth, when the last breath has been breathed,

when the fantasies and illusions are stripped away,

when the imposters and wannabes have all faded;

what else is there?

truth does not come easy,

it lies hidden among the wreckage

and excess baggage,

simple and plain, without motive

or agenda, without prejudice or conditions,

no compromise, no faltering,

no respecter of persons,

truth is not dependent on belief or faith,

it stands sparkling and clear,

shining like the sun in the eyes of a child,

truth stands alone;

many claim truth, twisting and turning facts,

attempting to fit their preconceived ideas,

creating vast empty empires, complete with

testimonies of flesh and blood, monuments of

self-glorification, exercises in futility,

deceiving themselves with grand ideas and

philosophical babble, which crumbles like dust

into the morning mist, but in the end truth remains,

in the end truth is all there is, in the end there is only

one way, one life, one truth.
