Oxford dictionary defines Integrity as the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness. The bible defines integrity as being honest, sincere, loyal, blameless, and maintaining good character even though the surrounding situations speak something different. Maintaining integrity is a strong determination that we have to make, especially in today’s world that dishonesty is the deal of the day. Take, for instance, you get out of school, and you are looking for a job, you put together your resume, and in the experience section you write no experience, hardly an employer will call you for an interview because they want you to have experience forgetting you can not attain any experience except you are hired by a company. However, if you put the same resume together and you write four years experience, which you do not have now, you will begin to receive calls for interviews.
Maintaining integrity is based on three points. First, who is living inside you, what is your goal in life, and where are you planning to spend your eternity?. If Jesus Christ is living in you, knowing the word of God, being directed by the Holy Spirit, and planning to spend your eternity with God, then it is essential to be a person of integrity regardless of the surrounding situations.
I implore you to be determined to be a person of integrity; at first, you may not have friends, material things, or even money. Remember, God is in heaven watching over you, tendering the garden of your life, and He will make all things beautiful at His own time (Ecclesiastes 3:11), and there are some things God has created that without you it will not be perfect (Hebrew 11 vs. 40).
