Nothing tops: Do unto others and love God with all of your heart, etc.
Melinda is correct in simple and God-centered.
Writing your Rule for Life is a powerful experience

I think God has helped me tremendously to write my “Rules for Life” without me even being aware of it most of the time. Gradually, He worked on my heart, chipped away at stuff that needed to go and helped me keep it simple and God-centered. When we follow His rules, we always go to the head of the class, right?! ;0)

My primary passage is Colossians 3:1-2, the instruction to keep one’s heart and mind on things above where Jesus is seated by the right hand of God. I also cling to the Proverbs 31 verse: “Strength and dignity are her clothing and she smiles at the future.”
