So stop telling lies. Let us tell our neighbors the truth... ~ Ephesians 4:25 (NLT)
Lord,
THANKS: Thank you for valuing integrity.
REGRETS: But it is so easy to tell people what they want to hear -- what won't hurt their feelings or shame them. And while my intentions are good they are not consistent with your way of doing things.
INTERCESSION: Please give me courage to speak the truth and the ability to do it in a wise and caring way.
PURPOSE: I want to be known for the kind of integrity that belongs to you and your people.
Amen.
