Integrity
Can you think of one thing that INTEGRITY doesn’t effect in your life? Certainly not. Without morals and sound judgment (integrity) everything becomes meaningless.
Without Integrity…
- Love is selfish and perverted.
- Leadership is hypocritical and disappointing.
- Relationships are destructive and vain.
- Education is hopeless and deceitful.
- Religion is damning and cruel.
- Business is nothing but greed and doomed to fail.
- Government is tyrannical and catastrophic.
- Parents are a child’s worst nightmare.
- Life is disastrous.
Reflection #1: Everything you do in life is dependent upon your integrity… everything.
