The No-Answer Answer

The No-Answer Answer…

In John 18:38, Pilate asked, “What is truth?” I remember in philosophy class my teacher said Jesus didn’t answer, he walked away. He didn’t walk away,

He was a prisoner. Yet it’s such a good question, why didn’t the Lord answer it? The fact is He did answer the question. He just stood there. He did answer by just standing there.

The truth isn’t an explanation, it’s reality. Truth isn’t summed up in something He said, truth is Him. Even as believers we often miss the whole thing because truth becomes for us words “about” the truth.

These things can be good, but these things are not Him. They are about Him. We as believers, as Pilate, miss the truth standing there. We want the things about Him and want to do all these things around Him, but He’s there.

Be still as He was and come back to the raw truth, because truth is not about Him, truth is Him. You will find He’s standing right there next to you in the quiet. That’s more than enough. That’s the Truth.

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Psalm 46:10-11

Be still and know that He is God – Discover the reality of God in the quiet.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,
