Speak the truth

I ran across this quote from Martin Luther. I thought it very self-differentiating and visionary. It inspires me to do what God has called me to do.

I was born to fight devils and factions.
It is my business to remove obstructions,
to cut down thorns,
to fill up quagmires, and
to open and make straight paths.
But if I must have some failing
let me rather speak the truth
with too great severity
than once to act the hypocrite
and conceal the truth.

I can relate to this.
