Day 9 — Returning to Honor

“Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”

— Psalm 139:23-24

Today I need to be honest:

I have been dishonest.

I have lacked honor.

I have spoken things in vain.

It’s painful to admit, but necessary. Because integrity isn’t something you declare—it’s something you live. Every time I twist the truth or speak without meaning, I feel that same inner conflict I’ve been trying to escape. My words lose power. My spirit feels scattered.

I want to rebuild myself with truth.

To say only what I mean.

To act only in ways that align with my values.

To make my word and my walk one and the same.

Maybe this is what real freedom is: not doing whatever I want, but being clean inside—so that I no longer owe myself any explanation.
