I have heard it said that it would be better to lose your reputation than your integrity and I couldn't agree more. A reputation is something that people think that you are, but integrity is who you are. When it comes to our relationship to Christ, the most important aspect of that relationship is your integrity. Integrity represents your genuineness and transparency before a holy and flawless God. Integrity doesn't mean you never sin, but that you are committed to being real at all times. The alternative would be to become a hypocrite.
