“Integrity has no need of rules.” ~Albert Camus
I’m sure you’ve heard various definitions of integrity with one of my favorites coming from Will Rogers; “Lead your life so you wouldn’t be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip.”
An integrity quote I utilize quite often comes from Henry Cloud’s book Integrity; “The ability to handle the demands of reality.” I would adjust this quote to say; “The ability to handle the demands of reality without bending or compromising on your God given principles.” Us addicts and alcoholics become pretty good at running from reality and creating our own.
In order for me to live a life of integrity I need to make sure there is more of God running my show than Jay.
How about you?
P.E.A.C.E.
Proverbs 10:9, “The man of integrity walks securely, but he who takes crooked paths will be found out.” (NIV)
