Key Words:
* Integrity
* Confession
* Hard Work
* Generous
I have to ask myself if those terms describe me? Do those terms describe you? Are you a man or woman who is full of integrity. We get our word integer from this word. Integrity means complete or whole, not lacking in anything. Do people see us as a godly person or an ungodly one? Do people see us as a generous person or as a stingy person? Do people see us as lazy or as a hard worker? Integrity is when those on the outside look at our lives and see that our lives align with our Heavenly Father. Is it hard to be full of integrity? Yes. It is something that one would have to work at constantly. Although it is difficult and hard work, it pleases our Heavenly Father; something which should be the number one priority of our life! Let us live with Integrity, Confession, Hard Work, and Generosity.
