Portrait of Integrity

Now here's a fantastic example of integrity.

From the Christian Post:

Elliot Huck, one of the nation’s top spellers, has decided to sit out from this year’s regional spelling bee, because the event occurs on the Sabbath Day.

The 14-year-old, who placed 45th last year at the National Spelling Bee, felt that the competition would conflict with the Christian tradition to rest on Sunday.

'I always try to glorify God with what I do in the spelling bee because He is the one who gave me the talent for spelling,' said the spelling phenom to the IndyStar. “Now I think I'm going to not spell and try to give glory to God in that.'


Our whole country used to have this kind of integrity toward honoring the Lord's Day: businesses and other functions did not operate on Sunday. But that has gone the way of honoring God in general: mostly extinct.

This 14-year-old is an example of integrity we all, old and young alike, can look to.
