Welcome to Day 835 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.
This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
One With God – Wisdom Unplugged
Thank you for joining us for our five days per week wisdom and legacy building podcast. This is Day 835 of our trek, and it is time for a 3-minute mini-trek called Wisdom Unplugged. This short nugget of wisdom includes an inspirational quote with a little bit of additional content for today’s trek. Consider this your vitamin supplement of wisdom for today. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget.
Today’s quote is from Ike Reighad, and it is, “Integrity is when you are one with God, yourself, and your loved ones.”
One With God
To have integrity is to be without pretense or subterfuge. It is being true to yourself and to be able to stand before God and your loved ones without a trace of guile or deceit. It means to be honest and transparent in all transactions and interactions with everyone.
Pure integrity means that every action you take, every decision you make, in every possible situation, you can unashamedly stand before God and your close loved ones who know you best. To be one with God means that you can stand before Him with complete transparency. To be a person of integrity is to be sincere.
The word “sincere” comes from the Latin words sine cera, which means “without wax.” The phrase comes from a practice where people would hide the cracks in cheap pottery with wax in order to pass the pottery off as being worth more than it actually was. Quality products were often stamped with the words sine cera to show it had not been doctored. It would be similar to those products today that are stamped “all natural” or “100% pure.” So should a life of integrity be…100% pure.
As the Apostle John tells us in 1 John 3:18-19, “Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions. Our actions will show that we belong to the truth, so we will be confident when we stand before God.”
That’s a wrap for today’s Wisdom Unplugged quote. If you would like free access to my database of over 10,000 inspirational quotes, the link is available on the main page of Wisdom-Trek.com.
