Proverbs 10:9 (NIV) The man of integrity walks securely, but he who takes crooked paths will be found out.
Psalm 112:5 (NIV) Good will come to him who is generous and lends freely, who conducts his affairs with justice.
Philippians 4:8-9 (NIV) 8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me--put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
God wants to develop the same character traits in us as exist in Christ. We are to react to the situations of life as Christ did. Erwin W. Lutzer (1941- )
