Buy Truth and Do Not Sell It
Buy truth and do not sell it; get wisdom, discipline, and understanding.
For comfort's sake, have I ever quietly sold off a truth I knew?
📝Reflection
Truth is bought at a price; it does not come for free. Yet there are moments when we sell what was so hard to gain cheaply, for a little comfort. This verse says buy it but do not sell it. Wisdom and discernment, once let go, are hard to buy again. To live by what you know though it is uncomfortable, to stand with the truth though it costs — that is the only way to keep what you paid a price to own.

When you're tempted to blur the truth for comfort today, speak it as you know it — just once.
This verse is read as universal humanistic wisdom, not religion — no faith is promoted, and the reflection is 100% original ONGO content.
