NOT FOR SALE
Integrity – wow, big word. What does it mean?
Integrity is the quality of being honest and strong about what you believe in (that’s what the dictionary says). In simple words, integrity is honesty, faithfulness, sincerity and innocence. Integrity is our value.
If someone asked you “how much are you worth?”, what would your answer be? 1 million? 10 million? If you were asked to do something which you know isn’t right, would you do it if that person offers you lots of money or gives you a favour? Cos if you’d do what is wrong for 10 million dollars, it means that your integrity can be bought for 10 million dollars. But here’s a trivia – we are worth more than every dollar in the world put together. We are bought with the blood of Christ. That makes us invaluable. Which also means that everything about us is valuable – our words, our actions, our thoughts, etc.
Integrity is something very rare these days. We don’t trust people so easily anymore cos most of the time, people don’t keep their promises or they don’t do what they say. Don’t compromise on integrity by saying “it’s ok” or “never mind la”. You are worth more than that. Stand for what is right and keep to your word cos integrity pleases God (1 Cor 29:17).
