Reflection
Have you ever found yourself listening to a person who is wondering what to do in a difficult situation and saying simply ‘Just do the right thing.’? Has it ever been said to you? It is in all of us to ignore what we know deep inside; that we find excuses to avoid simply being truthful and doing what is right – even to the point of making great sacrifices. Consider in this season of growth to make a commitment to be simple in our dealings with other people. Do what is right, be a just and honest person, and let God bless you and those you relate to on a daily basis.
Spiritual Exercise
What would life look like if everyone tried to do the right thing? Did you know there is an entire book written on the value of doing the right thing and how that perception could transform the world, from a point of view of the world economy? The book is open access and is called Doing the Right Thing: A Value Based Economy.
