True North

Last night someone asked, "what is your favourite verse?"

Uhm, there have been many verses that I like, but a favourite? I do not think of the Bible in this way, so I could not answer that question as asked. But if the intent is to understand me "better", than maybe I have an answer.

So I anwered with a verse that others can make sense of how I live my daily life. Something that guides me. Like a nautical "North star" or the "true North".

"Do for others what you want them to do for you." (Matthew 7.12 GNB)
