What is the S.O.P.?
Standard Operating Procedures. What are they for us? What is the standard that all of life is to hing upon and work from?
Well that depends on your focus and where you come from. It could depend on your upbringing, or your training as a child/young adult. Where are you from geographically, mentally, spiritually.
Ahh Spiritually what is our S.O.P.? if it is a spirituality from the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, then the S.O.P. is Love!
Love the Lord your God with all your heart, your soul and your mind, and Love your neighbor as yourself. Love everyone.
This is not an easy thing to do, which is why we have to depend on God. We see what this love is in 1 Corinthians 13. “Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”
Can you be patient when some one is constantly aggravating you about something? Can you not be irritable or resentful when someone cuts you off in traffic and tells you you are #1? And these are easy tests of having Love as the S.O.P….
The world needs people that profess this kind of love and live by it, and through it. The world needs people who love and forgive the people that have wronged them in any way. The world needs us, to shine the love of Christ and be his hands and feet for all humanity.
S.O.P. = Love!
