Integrity

I posted it to Facebook as well, sorry to those of my readers who also follow me on Facebook but I thought I could share it here as well because it really is a thought that struck me very deeply!!

Warning:this is a long post! And I have in no means accomplished all that is written below, but it is what came up in my thought process while doing my devotions and I was compelled to share it with you! Enjoy!

Integrity:
Having high moral character; honesty; to be complete, solid, without blemish.

[Having high moral character]
Knowing what right and wrong is, and even if your boss is not there ,you do the job as if they were watching you.

Proverbs 19:1 KJV
Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.

[Honesty]
Proverbs 12:22 KJV
Lying lips are abomination to the Lord : but they that deal truly are his delight.

[To be complete]
To have the Lord as your personal saviour and have given your life surrendered to him fully is what makes a body complete.

John 6:40 KJV
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

[Solid]
To be completely grounded in the solid rock (Jesus Christ)! And this is accomplished by reading his word and having a personal relationship with him!

Psalm 119:105 KJV
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

[Without Blemish]
This can only be accomplished by having Jesus blood  wash away our sins and make us white as snow.

Isaiah 1:18 KJV
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord : though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

1 John 1:7 KJV
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
