2 Corinthians 8:21
2 Corinthians 8:21
Providing for honest things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.
This verse emphasizes the importance of living with integrity not only before God but also before people. Integrity involves honesty, accountability, and a deep sense of righteousness that influences all our interactions. Our actions must align with our words, and we must aim to live in a way that honors both God and others. Whether in private or in public, integrity should be our guiding principle. It’s about doing the right thing, even when no one is watching, because we are always seen by God. This passage encourages believers to hold fast to integrity, knowing that true righteousness is evident both in the eyes of the Lord and in the sight of men. Such honesty fosters trust, builds strong relationships, and brings glory to God.
