When we don't keep our word to someone, it communicates to that person that we don't value him or her. We have chosen to put something else ahead of our commitment. Even when we break small promises, others learn that they cannot count on us. Not keeping our word is the same as disrespecting yourself. Honoring your word boils down the five principles below


I once had a close friend who did digital work. He was excellent and exceptionally gifted at what he did. My friend ran into some problems, no jobs coming by, expenses and responsibilities piling. In a bid to help I referred jobs to him. I began getting reports that he would go quiet on jobs without completing them or polishing them but having received payment. To see what other people were saying I then gave him two small jobs. Not only could he not complete them on time but never picked calls or replied messages yet he would promise to send something by end of day or in an hour or two. If you want to feel respected by others, then you need to say yes when you mean yes and no when you mean no, and not allow your fear of rejection or your fear of being controlled to get in the way of being a trustworthy person.


Imagine if your boss came to know you as a person with no integrity. Would you still keep your job? If then it were your spouse? Do you think they would want to stay in a marriage with you for a life time. What then if it were your friends? Would they want to be associated with you in any kind of way?

Brothers and Sisters, aloha! It is wonderful to welcome you to our first BYU-Hawaii devotional of this New Year. We hope that each of you had a wonderful break and enjoyed the opportunity to remember the Savior and His birth as well as spend time with loved ones. We are grateful to have you with us on this beautiful campus and we look forward to a rewarding and fulfilling year. For many people throughout the world, the start of a new year is a time for making resolutions, for outlining goals for self-improvement, and for laying out plans for accomplishing positive and uplifting purposes. In keeping with such thoughts, today I would like to talk about one of the fundamental tenants of the gospel of Jesus Christ: Integrity.


"First, for things pertaining to God and His Kingdom [and] what that means toward establishing peace in the world. Secondly, [so all who attend here can] develop character, and [become] noble men and women. The world needs men [and women] who cannot be bought or sold, who will scorn to violate truth, genuine gold. That is what this school is going to produce. More than that, they'll be leaders. All the world is hungering for them"


Today I would like to talk about the very essence of the character that President McKay was referring to:

men and women who are noble.

men and women who cannot be bought or sold

men and women who would scorn to violate truth

men and women who are genuine gold

men and women prepared to be the leaders for which the world is hungering.


The Latin root of the word integrity is "integer." Other words that share that same root include 'entire' and 'integrate.' Integrity is, therefore, the quality or condition of being whole, complete, unbroken, and undivided. The Latin root of the word honest is "honestus," which is also the root for the words, honor and honorable. Honesty is the quality or condition of being truthful, sincere, candid and worthy of honor. To have integrity - to be whole, complete, unbroken and undivided - means that we are honorable. We speak the truth, we do not deceive, and we honor our word.


"Integrity means always doing what is right and good, regardless of the immediate consequences. It means being righteous from the very depth of our soul, not only in our actions but even more importantly, in our thoughts and in our hearts. Personal integrity implies such trustworthiness and incorruptibility that we are incapable of being false to a trust or covenant." While some might regard integrity as insignificant, the Lord and His prophets do not.


I'd like to explore with you why integrity matters. As a part of that discussion, I will also consider Lucifer's interest in the matter, and will then suggest some tips for developing your integrity, especially while you are here on this campus. Finally, I will reflect on some of the great blessings the Lord has promised to those who consistently practice integrity, being honest and truthful in all aspects of their lives.


"There are few words in the English language with any more beautiful connotations than the word truth. In one of its meanings, the word truth is synonymous with the gospel of Jesus Christ. The scripture teaching us that the glory of God is intelligence adds 'or in other words, light and truth' (D&C 93:36). The Psalmist referred to God as the 'Lord, God of truth' (Ps. 31:5). And John described Jesus as 'full of grace and truth' (John 1:14)."


God, through His prophets, has always taught that seeking truth and saying what is truth is a commandment. The book of Genesis reveals Abraham's depth of integrity. In the fourteenth chapter, we read this remarkable statement:


I'm sure we can all recall the story of Job, a faithful and prosperous man. The scriptures recount that eventually Job lost everything he had in this world--his wealth, his health, and even his posterity. How did Job respond? In spite of all that had happened to him, Job reaffirmed:


Clearly, Job was honest and true and filled with integrity and that was true on every level: In his relationship with God, in his relationship with his fellowmen, and in his relationship with himself. Now contrast that with what the scriptures teach about Satan. Elder Oaks has summarized:


"There is no more authoritative or clear condemnation of the dishonest and lying person than the Savior's description of the devil as a liar and as the father of lies . In the letters of the New Testament, we read from the pen of the Apostles these commandments: 'Lie not one to another,' and 'Wherefore, speak every man truth with his neighbor.' "


In the Book of Mormon, the prophet Jacob declares that the liar "shall be thrust down to hell." Similarly, in his grand vision of the three degrees of glory, the Prophet Joseph Smith included "liars, and sorcerers, and adulterers, and whoremongers, and whosoever loves and makes a lie" among those who will "suffer the wrath of God on earth" and be cast down to hell to "suffer the vengeance of eternal fire."


Given the supreme importance of integrity, and its encompassed honesty and truthfulness, in the lives of those who accept and follow the Savior, it is not surprising that Satan would attack these virtues so vigorously. In a Priesthood session conference talk, President Faust admonished:


"We all should be concerned about the society in which we live, a society which is like a moral Armageddon. I am concerned about its effect upon us as [sons and daughters of God]. There are so many in the world who do not seem to know or care about right or wrong. We all need to know what it means to be honest. Honesty is more than not lying. It is truth telling, truth speaking, truth living, and truth loving."


How are we each doing against such a standard as this? Are we really truth loving? At this point, I would like to invite each of you to take a brief self-test or self-evaluation suggested a few years ago in a talk by Elder Bednar. First, listen carefully to the following exchange presented in a general conference address in1966 by President N. Eldon Tanner, a counselor in the First Presidency of the Church. President Tanner recounted the following:


"A young man came to me not long ago and said, 'I made an agreement with a man that requires me to make certain payments each year. I am in arrears, and I can't make those payments, for if I do, it is going to cause me to lose my home. What shall I do?'


"I said, 'I am not talking about your home. I am talking about your agreement; and I think your wife would rather have a husband who would keep his word, meet his obligations, keep his pledges or his covenants, and have to rent a home than to have a home with a husband who will not keep his covenants and his pledges.'"


Now for Elder Bednar's self-evaluation and self-test. Candidly and silently, answer the following questions: Did President Tanner's counsel seem old-fashioned, out-of-date, and unreasonable to you or did it seem appropriate? Would not losing your home be more important to you than keeping your word and the agreement you had made? Or would keeping your word and the agreement you made be more important to you than keeping the home? Is the counsel President Tanner gave in 1966 equally applicable in 2010? Or do you think our current conditions and circumstances are so different that his 44-year-old counsel is no longer relevant?
