Truth is not what you work for. It is not a concept that you can attain, but a Person and you can only obtain this Truth by asking Him to come and dwell within you. Do you have Truth personally dwelling within you?
A student once asked his teacher that he wanted to know how to find God, the wise teacher told him to follow him to the river and as they stepped into the river they began to go deeper until the student had to tip toe to be able to keep his nose above the waters, thoughts began to cross his mind that "does his teacher mean he has to die before he can find God" and just as the student was about to drown the wise teacher rescued him from the waters and brought him back to the shore. The teacher then asked him what was the greatest need that he desired at the point of drowning, the student replied that air was his greatest need. The teacher smiled and said that "the moment you genuinely and sincerely desired to know God the way you desired air that God will reveal Himself to you". John 14:21
Jesus said I am the Way, I am the Truth and the Life and no one cometh to the Father, but by me. John 14:6,16-17; 1:14; 8:31-32.
