Mengapa kita harus menjalani kehidupan yang berintegritas? Apakah integritas menjanjikan kesuksesan? Tidak. Terkadang integritas akan membawa pada hilangnya pekerjaan dan hancurnya finansial. Apakah integritas membawa rasa hormat dari orang lain? Mungkin, tapi mungkin hanya dari mereka yang juga mengejar tujuan yang sunyi ini. Apakah integritas membentuk hubungan yang sehat? Integritas mengarahkan kita ke sana—tapi tidak memberi jaminan. Apakah integritas membuat kita bahagia? Mungkin, tapi Ayub tidak akan pernah bisa dianggap bahagia saat ia duduk sakit dan berduka dalam tumpukan abu dengan teman-teman yang mempersalahkannya di sisinya. Tapi integritas memiliki upahnya tersendiri. Integritas memungkinkan kita untuk mengejar apa yang benar dan menolak apa yang salah—bahkan saat kita harus menyampaikan kata-kata itu di antara orang banyak. Integritas mengundang kita untuk mengenal diri sendiri dan bertumbuh dalam hal yang kita dapati ada di sana. Integritas membawa kepuasan. Integritas menarik kita untuk mengikuti Kristus sebagai teladan kita—dan Tuhan kita. Dan integritas itu berarti memercayai Tuhan karena pada akhirnya Tuhan sendirilah yang bisa dipercaya karena integritas Tuhan tidak bercela.
