truth?

"Into Your hand I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O Lord, God of truth." Psalm 31:5

why do we search for truth? why do we seek to know everything? i am definitely an advocate of truth, no matter how hard it is to say or hear. i think since the Lord is truth it says a lot about his nature. there is no lie in him. and i praise him for it. what if the Lord was like our earthly relationships or even what we picture as love. what a horrible fate that would be for us Christians. so if the Lord is truth then we can learn certain things about the Lord through what we experience here on earth. first, we should know ,brethren, that the Lord never conceals his truth. he never leaves us in ignorance no matter how hard it is. i find myself lately asking the Lord to bring that which is in the darkness into light. he has done so and without regard to my feelings. it hurts. it hurts in a way that i can't explain. but it's a good hurt. a temporary hurt that will yield strength and wisdom. or at least that's what i'm telling my spirit now and i'm praying that sooner rather than later my spirit will know this truth. truth is also healing. regardless of the previous aspect of it, the Lord also releases truth on us to heal us. Lord heal me! heal me with your truth. the truth about what you think, what you think about me, and what you are doing. i need it so. another aspect of truth that i have seen in my search for it, that sometimes you find out the truth and wish you would have never looked for it. sometimes i want something from the Lord or want to learn something and then later wish i would have never gone there. however in that, it just takes my flesh getting out of the way and getting over however it thinks its been wronged. i know this entry it completely wayward, but that's what sort of mood i'm in. my mind is going so fast right now that i can't type speedily enough. and nothing makes sense. and everything makes sense. but Lord you are good and i trust you alone. i trust you because you are truth and you make me safe in that. i feel safe with you Lord and i just wanted you to know that.
