God does not expect us to be perfect, but to be whole. To have integrity means to be whole, as in a whole number (an “integer”). Despite our human frailties, we can effectively guide those closest to us.
This scripture reminds us that we must closely observe and take note of the needs and problems of others. God expects those who follow Him to serve as guides. A guide helps groups or individuals safely to a planned destination. The Hebrew word for “guide” gives us several clues as to what God expects from those He uses:

A guide gives strength in spiritual unity that directs people in their walk with God.
A guide directs people on the straight path that leads to fellowship with God.
A guide offers accurate and godly counsel to those who need it.
A guide leads with gentleness and trustworthiness, making others feel safe.
A guide bases their direction on the Spirit and the Word of God.
