It seems that recently the thing that keeps popping up is this whole thing about mission statements and principles... It gets a bit technical and my sinful self tells me to don't bother thinking about it but I guess it is necessary if I want to live a principled life and not a emotion-led life. Below are some things I will need to think about:
1) Reasons for getting married
2) Rules of engagement during dating, courtship and marriage phase
3) Basis for spending
4) Basis for giving
5) Correcting a student
6) Leading the team
7) Why I am still in full time ministry
I guess there will be many more principles I will need to sort out in my life. As much as possible, I would want to be able to give a biblical basis for every decision I make and not a "I do it because I do it lor..." mentality. My church recently asked how we would define "success". I define it this way, "Able to live a life that others want to emulate because it reflects who Christ is". Living a principled life is a must, if I want to leave something worth emulating for those I lead and meet.
