Today's Scripture:
Do to others what you would want them to do to you.
Luke 6:31
What could be more embarrassing than being told that you have spinach in your teeth? Looking in the mirror at the end of a long day of important meetings and realizing that you had a green-stained smile all day and no one cared enough to tell you is humiliating. How you wish someone had said something. After all, you would have been kind enough to save someone else the same indignity. The golden rule seems simple enough. You have heard it since childhood.
But have you ever considered what it is that you want others to "do unto you"?
Until you have discovered what you want, you cannot deliver it to others.
Everyone seems to want his or her share of attention, approval, and opportunity from you. The needs of your followers can range range from a quick five-minute conversation to guidance on personal issues that affect their pro-fessional behaviors. Often, you are aware of needs that even they do not know they have such as training, correction, and motivation. The simplicity of the golden rule provides the essential wisdom you need to fairly divide your attention and approach your delivery.
The wisdom is quite simple. Do for them what you would expect for yourself. This wisdom fits all situations. It can save others embarrassment, provide awareness, or demonstrate concern. If you will treat others the way you want to be treated, you will produce a mutual acceptance and respect that enhances your leadership relationships.
Selah people' and friends when you doubt whether or not you should address an issue, ask yourself if your comments and behavior toward them are what you would want them to demonstrate toward you.
"Take time today to share the Love of God."
