Credibility is taking a coke back

How important is character to me personally? – Soon after moving to Pulaski my children, Josh and Britney were eight and six. We walked out of Bi-Lo one day and when I put my quarter into a coke machine out came not one but two cokes. I told Josh and Britney to go on to the car where their mom was waiting, and I took the extra coke back into the store. When I came back out to the car the first thing I heard as I opened the door was Britney telling Josh, “I told you he would take it back.” I have thought about that comment many times since. For twenty-five cents I could have lost credibilitywith the two people I need it the most with. (Swanger, Sermon Central).
