Truth Truth reveals darkness and encounters opposition. Truth is simple and there is no ambiguity in it. It is yes or no. To reveal your thoughts and desires to your confessor or spiritual director is exposing self to the light of truth. If there is any deception it will vanish.
Truth brings with it peace, joy and freedom.
To live in the truth is to live in humility. In your limitation you acknowledge God's greatness. Spiritual blindness comes from denying the truth, the glory that should be given to God, is given to creatures. Fear of rejection, failure, abandonment and pressure of various kinds force us to water down the truth, to make compromises and to tell lies. Truth seeks to rely on God in all things.
