Commitment to Truth

How does one discern between conflicting statements....especially when neither party has demonstrated a commitment to truth previously?


I am caught in the middle.  How do I plot a course when I am not sure where the land-mines are located?   Two people are telling me with certainty that they know....but what they "know" overlaps only slightly.  I want to do what is "right," not just so that I can survive, but also for the sake of doing right.  


I know that God sees and knows all, and that He himself is the personification of truth.  But in this present era, He is not in the habit of sending a handwritten message or giving clear revelation through a vision.  I am desperately in need of the guidance of His Spirit...of the still, small voice that directs.


Today I am reading II Corinthians 13:7-8  Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong.  Not that people will see that we have stood the test, but that you will do what is right even though we may seem to have failed.  For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.


I pray that I will not do anything wrong.
I pray that I will stick to what is right even if it looks like I have failed.
I pray that I will act in accordance with the TRUTH....real truth, not human perspective.
