Proverbs 20:7

The righteous man walks in his integrity;
His children are blessed after him.—Proverbs 20:7

2 Corinthians 1:12 (KJV)
For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.

These two verses give us such a beautiful picture of the fruit of walking through this life by His grace moment by moment.  Those who have integrity live out what they believe.   Their word and their deed match. They walk securely with no fear of stumbling.  Peace of mind and freedom from fear belong to them. Their very lives adorn the doctrine of their God and they become living testimonies to His faithfulness.  They are blessings to their children, other believers and to all that come in contact with them.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwellfn in the house of the LORD
Forever.—Ps 23:4;6
