Behind The Badge: Devotions For Law Enforcementಮಾದರಿ

Integrity Lasts Forever

The number of traps that can claim your career, good reputation, character, or even your family are astounding. It is necessary to remember that one bad decision can change your entire life. Consequences can last a lifetime; whether that is fair or not, it is still true. My hope for you is that you will cling to righteousness and integrity, that you will always error on the side of being upright and flee from any potential immoral, unethical, or criminal decisions. 

One decision can change the life of your family. Just one decision can change your career status. One decision can lead to a domino effect of terrible results that will take you to a place you never dreamed you could be—physically, emotionally, and mentally. Let others call you a holy roller or Bible thumper or boring; let them call you whatever, but be the one who is left standing at the end of the day with your character, integrity, and reputation still intact. After all, we serve our community as we are serving God, and we should do it in the spirit of excellence. 

Heavenly Father, do not lead me into temptation, but deliver me from evil. Protect me from the snares of the enemy. As I place my hope in you, may integrity and uprightness protect me. Amen.
