Integrity matters. What you use to build your life on matters. How you make decisions, determines your path. Lie to make yourself look good? Deceive others to gain a few extra bucks? Do your job half-heartedly for a paycheck? Sound familiar? Do you see this every where these days? What matters is not what you see out there, it’s what you do here. You are responsible for yourself first. Once you decide to use fire-proof materials to build your life, then you can help others see the need to use the same materials to build theirs. Integrity has no holidays. Be consistent in the way you live your life. Others will see it. And for those who want to honor God, it will inspire them to do likewise. Someone is always watching.
12 Anyone who builds on that foundation may use a variety of materials–gold, silver, jewels, wood, hay, or straw. 13 But on the judgment day, fire will reveal what kind of work each builder has done. The fire will show if a person’s work has any value. 14 If the work survives, that builder will receive a reward. 15 But if the work is burned up, the builder will suffer great loss. The builder will be saved, but like someone barely escaping through a wall of flames.
1 Corinthians 3:12-15
