“Integrity is choosing your thoughts and actions based on values rather than personal gain.” Chris Karcher

Imagine being the kind of person who always makes decisions based on what is good rather than whatever we happen to desire at the moment. Indeed, we often want things that are not good for us. Of course we can train ourselves to desire goodness, especially when we experience its benefits. Anyone who has practiced restraint at a buffet knows you feel better, and better about yourself, when we gratefully eat all we need instead of all we want.
“The integrity of the upright guides them…” Prov.11.3 Conversations Within” ts 9/7/2016
