Integrity and Faithfulness

Daniel's enemies thought his integrity and faithfulness made him vulnerable, but it turned out those were his superpowers. In a world filled with challenges, we can choose to live life with integrity and faithfulness. It's just about the only thing in our control. Daniel's story points us forward to the cross and the story of Jesus, the ultimate example of integrity and faithfulness. Too often, Christians settle for something less than integrity and faithfulness. We settle for a modern moralist substitute for faith that says as long as we say "no" to the right things, nothing else matters. That's not what Jesus calls us to. Jesus teaches that integrity and faithfulness requires us to love our neighbor by seeking justice and mercy for others.
