flavour of God‘s presence and blessing on all other areas and you

will have the ability to walk with confidence the road of the great

commission in Matthew 28:19.

someone when you cannot follow through? Do you easily speak of

others behind their backs? Is your work done to the best of your

ability, or do you take short cuts?

Integrity in its essence is dealing with hard issues the right way.

consequences. It is making sure that you hold up your end of the
