who walks in his integrity

Struck me, perhaps in preparation for another sharing in the spring, so note the date. He says in Luke that "he who is faithful in a very little thing is faithful also in much." Your initial thought might be that He means that the littlest sins and details are every bit on the same level as the bigger ones. Another thought might be that there is a character trait by which the righteous bear integrity in both the small and the large.

What if I were to pose the idea that without showing success in the little faith tests, He doesn't give you the strength to pass the big ones?

Context for the sharing: the workplace.
- Paid for 40 hrs/week -- do you leave ten mins early on Fri?
- Given two 10 min breaks -- do you stretch that to fifteen each?
- Email -- do you also make that for personal use?
- Vacation and personal days -- do you make them interchangeable?

Not speaking because of perfection in the little things, Heavens no. Repeat the motto: not for you.
