Bible Commentary

John 3:21

Walking in truth means welcoming the light. The person who does God's work has nothing to fear from exposure — they want God to be seen in what they do.

Memory phrase: Those who live in truth love the light.

Talk about it: What does it mean to 'do truth'? Can truth be something you do, not just something you believe?

Prayer: God, help me live in a way that welcomes Your light. Let everything I do be done for You.
