30 DAYS TO LIVE!

Day 21 :)
1st Chronicles 26:17
I know, my God that you will examine our hearts and rejoice when you find integrity there. You know I have done all this with good motives, and I have watched your people offer their gifts willingly and joyously.

-I mean to me.. this message really isn't that hard.
Integrity (in-teg-ri-ty)adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty.
This verse is saying that when God examines our heart, and when he looks down on us he will be happy to find integrety in our hearts, having good morals.. good ones that align with what he is looking for that we are honest, and that we truly have committed our lives to him. That is one of the best things that you can do to make God happy in my mind. God wants to see that everything we do, it is for good motives, not because we are being selfish, and we just wanna be happy.. but because we believe that is what is best. To me though, this brings up a question, and I asked God about it.. I will let you know my answer too.
Question: Well, then what if I do something that I think is right, and I am thinking of doing it with the right intentions but it turns out wrong.. which lots of times things do.
Answer: (I think).. the end product doesn't matter as long as you do it with a heart that focuses on me, and not one that focuses on other people. As long as you are pure in your heart, and you do it with good intentions. You can't control how people take things, you can only control how you deliver them.
