Integrity

This is a tough one. I have a list of personality characteristics I want to master and show in my life…this is one of them. Integrity is difficult to master because it requires one to be the same way and act the same way, all the time, everywhere. This means do what is right, when nobody is there, when nobody is watching, when nobody is there to commend you for it and even at times when nobody else is there to back you up. This is something that I really want to master, because it is a tough characteristic to have.

Just think about it. Acting the same way with all of your different types of friends, not giving in to peer pressure, and not doing anything stupid to try to be cool. Integrity is relative in a sense though. For one person Integrity may be not to lie, be the best follower of Christ he/she can be. For another person integrity may be doing everything opposite. It depends what one’s morals or ethics are. For someone to have integrity to me is to have positive ethics, because that is more difficult to obtain in this sin filled world.
