"Sleep with clean hands, either kept clean all day by integrity or washed clean at night by repentance." John Donne
"Honesty is the best policy" is a notion that's gathered some dust! Integrity has fallen on hard times in many areas of society. The qualities of honesty, truthfulness, reliability and sincerity have often been pushed into the closet and replaced by hypocrisy, thievery, unfaithfulness and deceit. Are you as good as your word? Christians must raise up the standard of integrity in a world where honor and uprigthness grow ever dimmer.
"if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14
He knows what he's doing
We do not get tired,
Of following the Lord in His way here below.
In the garden of Gethsemane,
At this broken time .
....
Yes, God knows what He is doing: life is a school
Where his child is taught by His Holy Word
Coming to His feet day after day to sit -
We will soon understand, at the approaches of the evening ...
When finally crossing the threshold of His house
We will then silence our poor reason,
Confused by contemplating unparalleled glory,
We will all say in chorus "He does everything marvelously."
By Lucien Bouabré
Normally biased is a lie; it is sinful.
Reasonably defensible is argumentative.
They look alike:
-1, 0, 1
n-1, n, n+1
end, neutral, beginning
Integrity is being in intimacy with oneness, allness, and wholeness with unity - unity with Jesus Christ. That unity brings forth your individuality, your identity, and connects you to destiny.
As a disciple, you must have discipline, duty, determination for your destination and destiny.
2:16, 3:16, 4:16, 5:16, 6:16, 7:16, 8:16, 9:16 are numbers with a code meaning with involvement of you and your family, the neighbor and his neighborhood, the remnant and the remote areas of the earth.
13 (31), 03 (30) have God Almighty's seal of meaning. It is a code of kingdom reality.
