Integrity in Living

 

            Living as a whole, integrated person can be challenging.  We tend to put on masks, saying one thing but contradicting it by how we live.  We struggle each day with issues of right versus wrong, good versus evil.  We tend to rationalize our behavior and compromise God’s standards of integrity.  We may explain away or ignore these sins.  These are the “vices of the virtuous”—sins that may have become accepted as the norm.  But God is holy, and we must not allow any compromise with sin to infiltrate our lives.  Because God is light, He will graciously reveal what we try to hide so that we can grow in integrity.
