Walk Honestly

1 Thessalonians 4:12

That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

Romans 13:13

Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

Here we see we are to walk honestly. What exactly does that mean? At first thought I believe it means to walk in who we are; we must be honest about who we truly are. However, it also means, "decently."

This means we are to treat others well. We are to treat them as we would like to be treated. The Romans passage tells us what it is not. It is not causing problems. It is not walking after fleshly lusts. It is not causing issues being envious.

Do you struggle to walk in who you are? I know this is one area that I struggle to walk.
