Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
With hindsight, I can remember thousands of times when I acted selfishly or without integrity when dealing with coworkers. When I caught myself in those times, it was easy to pull back, feel like a failure, and stop trying.
Yet God doesn’t define us by our failures. He is a God of compassion and restoration, as Moses told the Israelites (who had more than their share of failures) as they prepared to enter the Promised Land: “For the Lord your God is a merciful God; he will not abandon or destroy you or forget the covenant with your ancestors, which he confirmed to them by oath.” (Deuteronomy 4:31)
Whatever setback you experience at work today, remember that God can redeem all situations – and you – for His purposes.
