“You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” — John 8:32
There are moments in our lives where we seek out the truth. We need it. Even if we are the only ones to hold it. When you grab hold to it, it has the ability to break down barriers and walls. There is alot of rhetoric–but there is also a truth. In this moment we must be able to discern it. Let’s move forward with gratitude for the changes being made in this moment to right some of the wrongs in our lives. Let’s be thankful for tangible opportunities that our children can lay hold to in this moment. Let’s cultivate a heart of gratitude.
St. Bartholomew: Apostle of integrity and unwavering faith. His life reminds us that truth and courage endure beyond trials.
Historical Note
St. Bartholomew, one of the twelve apostles, is revered for his honesty and devotion. Described by Jesus as “a man without guile,” he symbolizes purity of heart and truthfulness. Tradition holds that he preached the Gospel in Asia and was martyred for his faith, often depicted with a flaying knife—the instrument of his death. His legacy inspires believers to live with integrity and courage.
