Walk Through The Bible 365 - AugustНамуна
Reputation Of Integrity
The compiler of Proverbs reminds us it takes a long time to build a valued reputation. The person of genuine integrity does exactly what he/she says. Their ‘yes’ means ‘yes’; their ‘no’ means ‘no.’ You can count on what they say. Furthermore, their reputation carries a gracious, generous and merciful quality. If we wear the badge of ‘Christ follower’, we’d do well to remember this basic truth.
Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, am I a person of integrity? Examine me, Lord. May my speech and actions today conform to your model of simple, direct, honest statements. Forgive me for times I’ve hedged, fudged, and added unstated conditions to my communications. Help me to build a reputation, which clearly brands me as Christ-following. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
