Having integity or moral uprightness is difficult in these times. While many post and expose their lives on social media, or their lives are splashed on the news, there are a lot of secrets that remain hidden then later revealed.
Many times, we are tempted to do things -- and actually go ahead and do them -- thinking that as long as it is hidden away and no one sees us, then it's okay. But proverbs 5:21 clearly tells us, "For a man's ways are in full view of the Lord, and He examines his paths." We cannot run away from the Lord, as He sees, and He knows.
Hebrews 4:13, "And no creature is hidden from His sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account."
Proverbs 15:3, "The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and on the good."
C.S.Lewis also put it this way: "Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching."
Lord, Omnipresent and Omniscient God, please watch over me and guide me that I may always do what pleases You, do what is right in your eyes even when no one sees me.
