Be honest The Word for you Today March April May

Be careful to do what is right. Romans 12:17 Jeremiah writes, "Like a partridge that hatches eggs it did not lay is the man who gains riches by unjust means.. in the end he will prove to be a fool" (Jer 17:11 NIV). Don't think that you can do whatever you like in small things, and be okay as long as you've no major lapses. Whether you steal a dollar or a million dollars, you're still a thief. Webster's Dictionary defines integrity as-honesty. Developing integrity requires constant vigilance. John Morley observed, "No man can rise beyond the limitations of his own character." And that's particularly true when you're a leader. So 1.)Keep your promises. When you create a promise you create hope. When you keep a promise you create trust. 2.) Acknowledge your mistakes. When your decisions don't turn out the way you intended, you owe people an explanation. 3.)Apologize and try to make amends. When your actions hurt others you need to admit that what you did was wrong and say you're sorry. This can shorten the agony and help you to put the incident behind you.
