Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:6 (NRSV) – “[Love] does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth.”
Reflection:
Love doesn’t turn a blind eye to what is wrong, nor does it avoid uncomfortable truths. Instead, love welcomes the truth because it strengthens trust. Love and truth together form a foundation for healthy relationships and serve as a credible witness to the world.
Application:
Choose one conversation today where you will speak honestly — but with gentleness and love.
Writing Prompt:
When has speaking truth in love helped you grow? How can you offer that kind of truth to someone else?
Prayer:
God of truth,
Give me the courage to be honest and the grace to speak with love. Help me to rejoice in truth that brings healing and hope.
Amen.
