My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread from Leslie Koh …  USE THIS LINK      … wrote about a young lady, … named Carol, … a new Christian going through an interview for a potential job; and being asked about her attitude toward Carol’s former employer.  But Carol would not “bad-mouth” that employer.   And after Carol was hired for the new job, her new employer said it was Carol’s integrity and restraint which was the reason why she was hired.

That’s the value of Christian integrity, which is the focus of the linked song and the scriptures shared above.  And when one views and studies the attached photo, we see that our integrity is reflected in a combination of what we believe, what we say and how we live for others.  Personally, I need to do more to let my life be a reflection of Christlikeness and Godly integrity.  How about you?  

My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank You …Lord, … for calling me to live for others the way You lived - and died - for me.

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, again today … for calling us to live lives which reflect Your perfect integrity, honoring You, with all we think, say, and do.     … Amen
