%Integrity once again%

Proverbs 10:9 says
"He who walks in integrity walks securely,but he who perverts his ways will be found out."

If you walk in honesty----if you are willing to look at the values, attitudes, thoughts and beliefs that are producing your behavior--you will be secure...
In this world, we don't have the power to get an accurate picture of ourselves. We can only do it as we are aided by the Holy Spirit, the Word of God and the community of believers.

As I read this verse I have to think that every aspect of our day must be given to God with open hands and heart, and to just let the Holy Spirit permeate every moment of our day. Sure were human , But God still reigns--over this earth -, He is still on His throne and we can let Him reign through us within our own Integrity..through our daily walk here on earth.

PaulP
Let Him be in your life.

**Endurance in Christ**

" He who hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of jesus Christ."
Philippians 1:6

Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion. It is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ. When you start out, you start out as a baby. You must be fed on the simple things of the Bible, and you learn to walk in your Christian life gradually. At first you will fall down and make many mistakes, but you are to continue growing. However, there are many people that have stopped growing. They remain spiritual babies all their lives. I am afraid that this experience is all to common today. Do you remember the day you gave your heart and life to Christ? You were sure of victory. How easy it seemed to be more than conqueror through Christ who loved you. Thousands of Christians have struggles with themselves.The greatest need of Christians today is for Christians to learn the secret of daily victory over sin.

Remember when we do fall ,God will give you strength to endure.
