Can anyone really be hurt, by unyielding Truth,
when it uncovers the lies, that people are living?
The honest answer is ‘Absolutely, Y-E-S’, when
it’s administered incorrectly and without giving

an ounce of compassion, as His Truth is meted out.
With a perfected heart, desire to do… what is right;
in the wrong hands, its sharpness cuts mercilessly;
know that we’re to be a soft reflection of His Light.

Improper behavior is accompanied by pain and misery;
bad attitudes, without any latitude of forgiveness,
will cause spiritual bleeds and lead souls to Death.
Walking in Love requires transparency and clearness;

it may help to minimize the hurt, when His gentleness
is applied under an atmosphere of holy righteousness.
The edge of Truth slices precisely, in proportion to
the applied amount of Godly or ungodly fierceness.
