What is Integrity?
A. Leadership:
Integrity are pole's that support the leadership. The only words with deeds that could generate power to influence attitudes and behavior of those they lead.
What Is Leadership?
Quoted from (http://pinetreeweb.com/whatis.htm ) Lewis P. Orans, 1997
Leadership is a process of getting things done through people. The quarterback moves the team toward a touchdown. The senior patrol leader guides the troop to a high rating at the camporee. The mayor gets the people to support new policies to make the city better. These leaders are getting things done by working through people -- football players, Scouts, and ordinary citizens. They have used the process of leadership to reach certain goals.
Leadership is not a science. So being a leader is an adventure because you can never be sure whether you will reach your goal -- at least this time. The touchdown drive may end in a fumble. The troop may have a bad weekend during the camporee. Or the city's citizens may not be convinced that the mayor's policies are right. So these leaders have to try again, using other methods. But they still use the same process the process of good leadership.
Leadership means responsibility. It's adventure and often fun, but it always means responsibility. The leader is the guy the others look to to get the job done. So don't think your job as a troop leader or a staff member will be just an honor. It's more than that. It means that the other Scouts expect you to take the responsibility of getting the job done. If you lead, they will do the job. If you don't, they may expect you to do the job all by yourself.
Mbah Marijan is the leader. He reflects the characteristics of leadership as outlined by Lewis P. Orans.
2006, when Merapi spewed lava, Maridjan choose to stay at his house, in Kinahrejo, Umbulharjo, Cangkringan, four kilometers from the summit of Merapi is smoldering. Sultan Hamengkubuwono X had ordered him down, but Maridjan not care. "I was mandated to keep Merapi Sultan Hamengkubuwono IX," (http://sorot.vivanews.com/news/read/185789-menyelamatkan-mbah-maridjan)
Before the events of the eruption of Mount Merapi (before 26th Oktober 2010), Mbah Marijan (based on the narrative her best friend which was broadcast in the event a razor), knowing that Merapi will erupt, and wedus trash (in local language) must pass through his home. But Mbah Marijan resolved will not be evacuated from the slopes of Merapi. Mbah Marijan proved himself capable of doing it.
This gives a direct impact to people who follow him. Based on the recognition of many witnesses, Mbah Marijan never forbade residents to evacuate the slopes of Mount Merapi, but instead encourage them to immediately evacuate. But the facts prove that after wedhus gembel swept Cangkringan, and when the rescue evacuate the victims of the disaster, many people who follow Mbah Marijan.
Does the same attitude we find in ourselves to each other?
B. Spiritual Life:
Proverbs 11:3 "The integrity of the upright shall guide them; But the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them."19:1 Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity Than he that is perverse in his lips and is a fool." 20:7 A righteous man that walketh in his integrity, Blessed are his children after him. 28:6 Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, Than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.
Daniel Manati I. Zega at "http://www.ebahana.com/warta-2319-Integritas-itu-Masalah-Nilai-dan-Alat-Ukur.html" wrote : "Tunjukkan nilai apa yang Anda anut, maka kutahu integritasmu. Ya, integritas tergantung pada nilai-nilai yang diyakini. Maka, pastikanlah nilai dan alat ukur yang digunakan!."
Integrity is one component that must exist within every believer. This we can see in the words of wisdom that are written by the author of Proverbs. Integrity needed in the various lines of life. According to the views the author of Proverbs, it turns out all aspects of life are an integral part of spiritual life.
Integrity to help every believer to keep it running in the path of truth. "Proverbs 11:03." Its value is more expensive than the most expensive property, and make people become wise "Proverbs 19:01." When done with the faithful, not just the perpetrators who had promised the Lord, but her children would be called blessed. "Proverbs 20:07"
How to integrate the words with the attitude of behavior?
Formulating the arguments about the order of life is easy. Develop a good speech or writing good sermon, many people who are able to do so. But to make it happen, it takes great effort. During the formulations were not proven by the attitude, behavior that is formulated to live like before, everything is just "THEORY." Living in this world are not something theoretical, but real life. Don Galer said : “Integrity is what we do, what we say, and what we say we do”. As a Christian, the bible tell us : "But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil." (Mat 5:37). To understand this sentence, let's look to the object called a clock. When the clock does not show the proper time, many things would become chaotic. Simon Schrock tells at preparation of his book : "I think all of us would agreethat integrity is generally lacking today from government, business, and evenchurch leaders. It is also lacking from many children, parents, and workers." Regardless of our limitations as a human being, living with integrity should be a reality in the life of a Christian.
