Integrity is who you are when no one is watching.
Not the polished version.
Not the Sunday version.
The real you.
In Scripture, the idea of integrity comes from the Greek root “holos,” meaning whole, complete, integrated.
It is a life that is not divided.
No hidden version.
No split identity.
What God sees is what people see.
“The godly walk with integrity; blessed are their children who follow them.”
Proverbs 20:7 NLT
Integrity is not perfection.
It is honesty.
It is alignment.
It is living the same life in private that you claim in public.
“The integrity of the upright guides them.”
Proverbs 11:3 NLT
Integrity guides your decisions, protects your witness, and strengthens your soul.
A man of integrity walks steady because he has nothing to hide.
“People with integrity walk safely.”
Proverbs 10:9 NLT
A Challenge for Men
Ask God today,
“Lord, where am I divided? Make me whole.”
Tell the truth.
Close the gap.
Live as one integrated man.
You might die today.
Rise to what matters.
