"In all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, with purity in doctrine, dignified" -- Titus 2:7 / New American Standard Bible
It has been said that character is what we are when nobody is watching. How true. When we do things that we know are not right, we try to hide them from our families and friends. But even then, God is watching. If you sincerely wish to walk with God, you must seek, to the best of your ability, to follow His commandments. When you do, your character will take care of itself and you won't need to look over your shoulder to see who, besides God is watching.

Lord, You are our Father in Heaven. You search our hearts and know us far better than we know ourselves. May we be Your worthy servant and may we live according to Your commandments. Let us be a person of integrity, Lord, and let our words and deeds be a testimony to You, today and forever.
