You have felt the battle of temptations on you before - pulls toward the wrong and away from the right. You’ve heard it said that "integrity is who you are when no one is looking." Who you are when no one is looking though, is the same person you are anytime someone is looking.
Peter has some pointed words on how personal righteousness becomes your public witness. As you dwell on these words with Jesus today, really be asking yourself if there is any such thing as a private sin? Catch a Disciple-Maker's vision for how your righteousness is a resource to invest in others. Really pair the two together in your vision.
Take extreme caution though in making sure your vision has gospel written all over it. Your integrity is good news for others when it's about your fall meeting the forgiveness, faith, and freedom of Jesus. Integrity based on performance is a far-fetched idea, and it does a lot to steal hope.

About this Plan
A Disciple-Maker life takes Disciple-Maker Vision. My growth, my Jesus, my discipleship has its place center stage, but it's not the only thing on the stage. No theater runs with a cast of individuals buried in their own script, waiting for their own queues. It takes cast members that see everyone else's part, see the props and pieces to hold, see the overall plot and the scenes that build it, see the audience whom all this is for, and see the director from whom all things come. It's the same with Jesus in the great dramatic unfolding of his kingdom come and his gospel for all. You probably started with fixating on your part, which is normal and expected. The time comes when you see the rest. Every Disciple is to become a Disciple-Maker. These next forty days are for shifting your Vision to that of a Disciple-Maker. More than nuggets of wisdom, this devotional aims to set you up with an open-ended dialog with Jesus. Be ready to sit in scripture and prayer long enough for something new to be formed with him.
