SECURITY FOR INTEGRITY
SECURITY FOR INTEGRITY
Integrity is rarely conducive to victory, to judge from history. It seems that chicanery, mendacity, duplicity are better vices to win.
It may be that integrity and victory are incompatible without security: from chicanery mendacity duplicity.
What kind of security can this be?
That banishes vices from the field to assure integrity an opportunity?
Cleanliness of place persons things that are continually vetted revetted revetted, in body and in spirit, with rigorously sound knowledge, and with nutrient-rich feeding supplied.
Vice is the default state of integrity, as integrity is of vice. Staunching one releases the other one to live.
"Choose you this day whom you will serve ..as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Josh.24: 14-15. Choose you each day on in!
Thank God for new opportunities!
