A few days ago I posted about integrity, but the other side of the coin, for me, is honesty. From a young age, my Daughter has known that as long as she told the truth – no matter what she had done – we’d…
Don’t let the urgency of daily life, choke out the priority of our eternal one… How many of us stress, or worry about the things that we “need” to get done or the extra money we need? Not only that, but we are also…
There are certain things within Proverbs that Solomon definitely wants to get across to us…one of them is, walking with integrity. I spoke briefly on it yesterday, but as I was meditating on the words God spoke to me throughout the day, I thought…
