Breakfast Burrito

Just in case you were wondering, this is what I had for breakfast this morning. I love these spinach wraps that they make here. They call it green roti and I call it green goodness. Our neighbor's house helper brought them over yesterday. They occasionally bring over various food items. Most of it I don't like.
This maybe really random, but recently I've been thinking about integrity. Specifically my integrity or lack of in same instances. The last time our neighbor brought over food, we didn't touch it and I threw it away. You probably would have done the same thing if you would have seen and smelt it. The problem is that when she came back to get the bowl, I told her I loved it. WHAT A LIE!!!! I know I'm not going to hell over it, but it is sort of a bad habit. In the South we hate offending people, well at least I do and I don't think its always right. I mean sometimes when our hair looks awful, we need a friend to lie and say it looks good b/c its one of those days. But overall we need to be honest...I need to be honest. Someone asked me the question, "Is it easier for you to be kind or to be honest?" I answered "to be kind." What does that say about me? These are a few of the scriptures that I've been praying for myself.
"Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing." -Prov. 12:18

"She speaks w/ wisdom and faithful instruction is on her tongue." -Prov. 31:26

I feel so far from these verses. I've got the reckless words covered, but my words bringing healing or having faithful instruction on my tongue, What in the world???? I wish!!!

I just want to mean what I say on all levels regardless of the subject on hand. If I don't mean it, I don't need to say it.

GET PUMPED!!! DECEMBER BEGINS TOMORROW!!!!! LOVE A LOT and EXPECT A LOT!!!
