Today's Scripture
Song of Solomon 2:15, NLT
Catch all the foxes, those little foxes, before they ruin the vineyard...
Today's Word
God wants us to be people of integrity. A person of honor is open and honest and true to her word. He says what he means and means what he says. She doesn't have any hidden agendas or ulterior motives. He doesn't need a legal contract to force him to fulfill his word. People of integrity are the same in private as they are in public. They do what's right whether anybody is watching or not.
If you don't have integrity, you will never reach your best. Integrity is the foundation on which truly successful relationships are built. Every time you compromise, every time you are less than honest, you are causing a slight crack in the foundation. If you continue compromising, that foundation will never be able to hold what God wants to build. On the other hand, God's blessings will overtake you if you settle for nothing less than living with integrity. There's no limit to what God will do in your life when He knows He can trust you.
