Facts before fiction are one of my personal themes that I try to live by.  Facts can be proven to be truth. Facts don’t change; they remain consistent and are information based on real occurrences.  Many times we form or create facts in our lives about situations or about others based on our individual perceptions and opinions.  Is this an intelligent thing to do?  I have witnessed others develop an entire scenario about something or someone based on their own perception and opinions then turn out to be completely inaccurate about what they deemed fact.  Why do we do that?  Why don’t we realize that our opinions are valuable and useful but it’s clever to base opinions on facts and not facts on opinions?  Leave the door open for inaccuracies.

Man of your word.

Say what you mean and mean what you say, A simple statement that has a much deeper meaning to it. People who are truthful clear the air. They bring loving correction and clarity to behavior and situations. Upholding your word honors the power of the covenant that is key to understanding God and man. In our history of faith, we look for those who were true to their commitments. When our actions match our words we become more credible, trustworthy and believable to those around us. Many of us blurt out statements and our actions don’t follow what we’ve said. People remember especially children. When we do this consistently we undermine our integrity as a person. Are you someone who often says one thing and does another or does nothing at all? How does it affect your relationships? What does it create in your environment? Chaos or simplicity?
