Myths Never Rest
They will turn their ears away from the truth.
2 Timothy 4:4 (NIV)
Paul foresees auditory desertion: they will turn ears from truth, turning to myths. Itchy ears swap truth for myth — solid doctrine for comfy stories. Myths entertain, truths confront; crowds choose entertainment. People-pleasing churches pack services, emptying crosses.
True rest dwells only in truth. Myths promise relief, delivering anxiety: self-help billing, addicting spirituality, reality-denying positivity. Truth confronts then rests — first swords, then balms. Myth-fed sheep slim spiritually; truth-fed sheep fatten peacefully. Choosing menus with eternal care.
Switching off one myth today: trading empty talks for full Words, gurus for Shepherds. Myths never rest: only truth grants tranquil sleep.
Healthy ears love hard truths. Tuning yours through Scripture today. Spiritual menus determine eternal energies daily. Choose solid truth over sugared myths today. Healthy ears reject doctrinal junk food. Feed on Scripture and rest truly. Entertaining lies exhaust souls gradually. Unplug myths today deliberately. Balm follows swords in truth's order. Sleep soundly on solid doctrine nightly. Choose truth daily. Rest comes only through truth received humbly. Tune ears morning and evening. Share truth lovingly with myth-eaters. True love never stays silent.
And sharing truth with myth-dwellers: true love never stays silent.
