Integrity

Integrity. I want that. I want to have integrity. Definition of Integrity: Adherence to moral and ethical principles: Soundness of moral character, Honesty. My ethical thinking gets scrambled when I make myself vulnerable. The good angel on my right shoulder says, "don't pay attention to such things, you are God's and He's trying to guide you! So let Him!" Then the bad angel on my left shoulder says, "He just keeps getting under your skin. Get mad! Get angry! " Thankfully, going to Mass 3 times a week is just enough to get me through half a week, I need more. More Masses and more Communions. I prove over and over and over again, that I would be struggling so bad, worse, then if I didn't have my beloved God to feed me and direct me.

     How beautiful a God, Papa, to have a way to stay oh so close to HIM. We just can't be wishy washy. It's all or nothing. I really am not a pessimist. I just let too many things tick me off... I have to tell my self Marianne! Relax. Listen to the words He says, "take my yoke, I promise to carry it for you".

     " Oh God, Take away my ugly pride. Let me bask in your Holy moonlight. Help me to surrender for all things that are good. Integrity being one Of those things.
