John 1:47 NASB "Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and *said of him, “Here is truly an Israelite, in whom there is no deceit!”" Could He say that about us?! Today's Word is Jesus seeing one of His Disciples to come and saying that he had integrity! Can others tell by how we live as being one who has integrity? A rather hard question but one that needs to be answered if we say we are followers of Christ. I could tell that he was a man of integrity by the way he acted around others but when I stopped by his house, unexpectedly, I found that he was a man of his word. It's one thing to say we have integrity, another thing to show it around others but when we are alone, are we?! We can not say we have integrity only when we are around others, it has to be all the time, even when we are alone. Integrity simply means that we have upright character,  a strong character and we will do, what we say. Could Jesus say that about us?! Something to ask ourselves! peace, tom
