Trust Assumes Truth Matters

 

T  Telling  the  truth  matters  a lot  T
R  Relationships assume that your  R
U  unbroken word you’ll carry thru  U
supporting  every  commitment  T
T  Trust  is built on speaking truth  H


THAT

A  Any  promise  that  you affirm  M
S  should not  be  mere  panacea  A 
S  so if your words include deceit  T 
U  unknowingly or  through intent  T
M  Make restitution for such lapse E
E  Excuses   hide   under  cover  R
S  Secrets  can  create suspicions S

About the Poet
Growing older with some pains and discomfort, graying hair, glasses, partial plate and hearing aids but with complete assurance of my eternal domain. Saved by choice by Gods free grace by Jesus life, death and resurrection. Born and bred in the Bluegrass State for 24 years, I crossed the Ohio River and became a Hoosier forever thereafter until that time God calls me to my heavenly home. Christian for fifty-five plus years. Church musician and SS teacher for most all of my Wednesdays and Sundays. Public school teacher for thirty-six school terms; retired with a class now of three grandchildren off and on during the week. Wife for half my life to the same superman. Mama to two unique sons. Mother-in-law to a fine daughter; Nana to one darling girl and two handsome guys. God has blessed me abundantly; thank you, Father. God quiets my hackles; God quickens my heart; God quells my hunger. Blessed be His holy name.
