What Is Integrity?

The more I think about becoming a man of Integrity the more I wonder how God would describe a man of Integrity. I find myself at times not even in the ball park of my own definition, I can only imagine how short I fall when compared with Gods definition.

I would explain Integrity as someone who is honest, loving, not afraid to stand up for what he believes in and a person that isn't afraid to say when he is sorry and/or wrong. When I look at that I realize how short I fall and that I can not live up to that on my own power. I need God's help. I need to die to myself and live for God and trust that he knows better than I... This sounds so easy and I know he wouldn't disappoint me so why is it I can find the strength or weakness to do it? Why are we so afraid of what God wants us to do... Do we think HE is going to tell us to become missionaries across the world or is it as I believe he is going to call us into what we know deep in our hearts we want to do and are afraid we will fail.

The Bible says "whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God". It is the first verse I ever memorized and it is a big part of the person I want to become, but I find it so hard to do. I know the first step is to repent and ask God to help me with this. I need, no I must start praying for this in ALL aspects of my life.

God help me with that, I so desire to become the man you want me to be. I no longer want what the world wants for me, I want you. Amen.
