*DAILY DEW 16/SEPTEMBER/2023* *Dare To Be A Person Of Integrity* _Key Bible Text:_ *"He going in integrity shall go confidently: and he perverting his ways shall be known."* (Proverbs 10:9 (SLT)) _Bible Insight:_ Integrity is fast becoming a rare commodity. There used to be a time when the church was well known for honesty and integrity. We cannot afford to join the rest of the world in the loss of identity. Integrity is our identity but this is fast becoming a thing of the past. This is one area you and I must rise and shine the light again in the midst of the darkness. The other day, I was given a job to do by one of my clients. It involves a company change of name. It was my first time. So when I started the process, I had to subcontract to another person to help me finish up. This became necessary because the law firm I worked with then did not allow me enough time to run around for my own side briefs. Since I was still in full employment in a law firm and I felt I wouldn't have all the time to give the job the concentration it deserved, I subcontracted it. After about a year, the person couldn't make much progress. Not happy about that, I collected the job and continued to do it myself. I met another man who claimed to be so good at it. He boasted that he could handle it. Again, I paid him just to fast track the process, or so I thought. Once again, this second man also failed me. He was worse than the first man even. Finally, I took over the job, handled all queries and eventually got the certificate. It took me over two years to handle that challenge. There had been days I thought about returning the file and apologizing to the client that I couldn't handle it. I couldn't imagine myself doing that. I delivered the certificate and when I asked for my balance it was not paid, I just let go and preferred to preserve the relationship I had with the client. Apart from telling someone what you will do, or not do, anything else you say, such as swearing or trying hard to convince them, show that something evil is likely in the offing. God wants us to be people who are believable and reliable. This is the greatest challenge facing all who want to stand out as the light. Deceit and pretence must be banished from us. _MEDITATION:_ *"Just say 'Yes' or 'No'---anything else you say comes from the Evil One. – Jesus Christ.
