To be honest means, to be free from deceit, being truthful and sincere

God loves honesty because Himself is the definition of honesty. But being honesty is just the starting point one living truthfully. And you will ask how? : being honest does not mean that one believes what is true. It only means that one says and live in consistency with what they believe in.

Honesty is a state of being true to one’s convictions and beliefs. But one’s convictions and believes might not be true in most cases. It is then possible for us to be honest and wrong at the same time.

When a person who has been secretly struggling with lesbianism finally comes out openly to say am a lesbian, yes the person is honest but does make lesbianism to be good because God never created Eve and Jennifer but He created Adam and Eve. Or a person who has being smoking and drinking secretly for fear of people seeing him or her as a smoker but when the person comes out openly to do it,that person is now honest with their true identity but that does not make what they are honest about to be true. What each of these people experiences is a sense of being true to themselves, even if what they believe in is not rue and right.

It then becomes a great concern and question to us if our honesty is about things that are good and not evil. Being honest with what is bad as a show of one's true identity is like covering a needle with cake, it would be deadly and harmful.

Also another question that should be answered is: are we honest in some areas of life and not honest in other areas of life?. I get to see alot of dishonesty about some people on the steem platform by way of not keeping to their words. They organise contest but never announce results while some who announce their results are not fair in their judgement. .

Be honest and stand for what is right at all times!
