Truth is on you side. ( Isaiah 53 v 7 )
The late Selwyn Hughes ,wrote about a minister, who was accused of something of which he was innocent. He explained the facts, but his explanation was not accepted and he was removed from the pulpit of that church. Selwyn asked him why he hadn't done more to protest his innocence. With assurance he said;'Truth is on my side...the months will speak against the hours.' Within six months he was exonerated and went back to his pulpit. Selwyn commented ,'Now that's security, that's trust'. The nature of life will mean that there are times when unfair things will happen to us,we are treated badly,and there is nothing we can do about it.Consider our dear Saviour and all he suffered unjustly,this is what the apostle writes about him,'He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth. When they hurled insults at him,he did not retaliate; he entrusted himself to him who judges justly' ( 1 Peter 2 v 22- 23 )
