Choosing Integrity
A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold. Proverbs 22:1 KJV
Honesty is the best policy, but it is not always the easiest policy. Sometimes, the truth hurts, and sometimes, it’s tough to be a woman of integrity…tough, but essential. Charles Swindoll correctly observed, “Nothing speaks louder or more powerfully than a life of integrity.” Godly women agree.
Integrity is built slowly over a lifetime. It is the sum of every right decision and every honest word. It is forged on the anvil of honorable work and polished by the twin virtues of honesty and fairness. Integrity us a precious thing-difficult to build but easy to tear down. As believers in Christ, we must seek to live each day with discipline, honesty, and faith. When we do, integrity becomes a habit. And God smiles.
Meditation Scriptures:
Till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me. My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live. Job 27:5-6 KJV
He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known. Proverbs 10:9 KJV
The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them. Proverbs 11:3 KJV
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. Psalm 25:21 KJV

Today’s Prayer
Dear Lord, You search my heart and know me far better than I know myself. May I be Your worthy servant, and may I live according to Your commandments. Let me be a woman of integrity, Lord, and let my words and deeds be a testimony to You, today and always. Amen.
