Necessary Purpose
March 18, 2007
You want to be whole, you want to have purpose inside
You want to have virtue and purify your mind
You want to be set free today
Then lay it all down before the king*
I believe in telling the truth, especially in the environment where there still exists integrity. I have to remember myself at work, where I am asked by my manager to sometimes do things that I know can be wrong. I know it’s my choice to do right and doing right is what I will do, because I can’t let the things that aren’t true to win.
Do I tell my manager that I am not willing to lie for him? Yes. It is important to be very honest. Do I tell him that my loyalty is to the Greater Beyond? Yes. It is important to be honest and let him know that I will not be misused for earthly purposes. I don’t think that is God’s Will for me to be dishonest, I just don’t know how to explain it in a way that he will understand.
I really, really believe in God.
*Jeremy Camp, lyrics, “My Desire”
