Right Living
God is reiterating one truth in my life. Integrity. God tells me in Proverbs 13:6; "Righteousness guards the person of integrity, but wickedness overthrows the sinner." In order for me to nurture integrity in my life, I must live right. The standard of right-ness is God's truth. It is not what is best for me with no regard for others. It is right living according to the principles and precepts of God's truth in the Bible. So, as I live right my integrity is guarded. As I treat others right, my integrity is guarded. As I think right (of others, of myself), my integrity is guarded. The contrast is a life thrown over with wrongness.

God wants me to live a great life for Him. It will take principled discipline. Right living is not easy. Right living is for the strong, not the weak. I wonder if your experience is like mine. Do you struggle with living right? Do you seek to live out God's truth? Or are you feeling overthrown with wrong ways?

But there is hope. Every believer can confess sin and renew his or her walk in Christ. You are on the journey. You can reaffirm your commitment everyday. You can live for Christ. You can gain victory! Keep trusting God and living out His truth in your life. I wonder if you are encouraged or discouraged from these reflections. Drop me a comment.
