What does it mean to be a person of integrity? We are living in a time and age where integrity is a scarce characteristic in a person. Sometimes I wonder how people could behave in such ways without feeling even a tinge of guilt.
It's so common that people who cheat and lie are better off than those who do the right thing. Is being better off really better off than having integrity and dignity?
Standing up for what is right could be so hard. You often end up in the losing end, feeling suckish when you see the people around you succeed. I don't know if I'm more upset about the fact that people do better when they cheat or that people are so ignorant doing things that they know it's wrong.
Sometimes doing the right thing is hard but you know in the end that it's for God's glory.
Dear Jesus, thank You for giving me the strength to do the right thing. My prayer this day is for the people to know the value of integrity to have the boldness to stand up for what is right. Continue to help me to be more like You. Help my life to be a living testimony unto Your Name. May my actions and words reflect Your image. In Jesus' Name I pray.
