Christian Business Principles – Personal Behavior
ByBy Mark David Harriman
Personal behavior will take us far in life as well as in business. Doing unto others as we would have done unto us is a core principle of the Christian Faith and one well listened to. “As God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved,” as Paul wrote in chapter three of Colossians, we should wake in gods light and let our light so shine before men, giving God the glory.
It will create success in our lives as well as in our businesses, teaching us the value of Christian Business Principles. One of the first things that Paul tells us to clothe ourselves in is compassion. Compassion is defiantly a personal virtue well worth attaining.
Having compassion on others shows wisdom and understanding and this is something that others will always see. It builds character within us and helps keep us on the write track.
Compassion’s core is in empathy and sympathy, standing with others in their time of need provides support and helps to lift burdens when people need it most.
The next thing Paul mentions is kindness and humility. Kindness is easy and works wonders, humility on the other hand is a bit more complex. Humility some would say is a quality of being modest, not arrogant, and not rude. I like to describe humility as lifting others up rather than focusing on bringing yourself down.
Modesty is defiantly a good trait to have and portray, but if we focus on lifting others up, modesty will come, and as we lift others up we will many times be solving some of our problems with out even knowing it.
Paul next writes that we should be meek and have patients. Check back for part two which will continue our discussion on being meek and having patients.
