The First Step To Integrity

“If you pray to God and seek the favor of the Almighty, and if you are pure and live with integrity, he will surely rise up and restore your happy home. And though you started with little, you will end with much.” ~Job 8:5-7 (NLT)

If you are serious about becoming a man or woman of integrity, the first step is to admit that you haven’t had integrity. You just admit that you don’t always keep your promises. You often gossip, and you like it. Sometimes you slack off at work. You pretend to be someone you’re not. Just admit it all to God!  A lot of people segment their lives, and think they can live with integrity when they are harboring sin in one area of life as long as it doesn’t affect the other areas. None of us are perfect, but God doesn’t expect you to be perfect! He does, however, expect you to have integrity, and the starting point is to own up to your sins. God is more interested in your heart than your sins. You’re never going to be perfect. You’re never going to be sinless. But you can sin less, and that is the choice of integrity. Hallelujah, God bless
