“If I believe something… it means I’m not fully sure.”
— Powerful words spoken in a short clip, but the depth of meaning is vast.

💧 The Setup: What Colour Are You?
In this compelling video, a speaker asks a simple question: “What colour or nationality are you?” The man answers, “White.” This response becomes the doorway to a profound realisation.
The speaker then introduces water. Imagine water in five different colours — red, green, yellow, blue, and clear. What would you assume based on the colour?
You’d think each one is different. But that’s only because you’re using your eyes.
🧪 The Truth Comes in the Tasting
“You’ll only know what’s inside if you taste it. But if you look with your eyes, you’ll say they’re different things.”
This challenges the very root of perception. We often make judgments based on the container, not the content. But deep truth is not seen — it’s experienced.
When you go beyond labels and surface impressions, you realise that all water flows from one source. Likewise, the spirit within all humans is not divided by skin, status, or belief.
🤔 Belief vs Knowing
“If you believe something, it means you’re not sure. Because if you knew it, you wouldn’t say ‘I believe.’”
Belief can be a placeholder for absence of direct experience. In contrast, knowing is rooted in truth.
- You believe when you’re unsure.
- You know when you’ve lived it.
In matters of the soul, don’t stop at belief — dive deeper, drink the water for yourself, and know.
📝 ✨ Poetic & Scriptural Spoken Word: “The Water Within”
“Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”
— John 7:24
“Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
— 1 Samuel 16:7
🎤 Spoken Word Flow:
I am not the cup you see,
Nor the label placed on me.
I’m the current that runs beneath,
The silent stream, the breath, the beat.Five cups, five colours — still the same Source,
Flowing through a sacred course.
But if you judge by what you see,
You’ll never know the truth of me.Belief is brittle — doubt in disguise,
A veil of smoke before your eyes.
But knowing is a holy flame,
It speaks with stillness, not with name.I don’t believe that I exist —
I know it in my bones and wrist.
I taste the water, I feel the wave,
And see no label on the brave.For spirit has no skin or race,
No corner, border, tribe, or place.
Just love that pours through every face —
One truth, one Source, one silent grace.
🌊 Final Reflection: From Perception to Truth
This video isn’t just a clever analogy. It’s a mirror — calling you to stop seeing with flesh and start perceiving with spirit.
Next time you say, “I believe…”
Ask yourself — do I know it?
And remember:
“The spirit of truth… will guide you into all truth.”
— John 16:13
Let truth be the taste you trust — not the colour of the cup.
