Journal Entry 5- Rule of Life.

A rule of life is, in theory, a great idea. It sets boundaries and expectations of a way to live in specific manner. Spiritually a rule of life would be one that directs one's life to glorify and honor God the most. I think a rule of life is valuable because it can narrow down all your goals into one that highlights and strengthens the big goal. I think a rule of life should be developed on it's own. I think that you should examine your life and identify what you do well, and what fills you the most in your efforts to glorify God and mold a rule out of that. I believe, if you create a rule out of guilt, or need to follow the law then you just make it a legalistic matter and forget the bigger picture, why you are doing it, or why you have a rule of life.
