Decisions of a Mistress
1. I DECIDE to always bear in mind that my Master is in Heaven. I will be an example to my subordinates in discipline and duties that I may exercise authority rightly over them.
2. I DECIDE to be humble. I will always keep in mind I am what I am by the grace of God. I will not exalt myself before my subordinates or others. I will glorify God for my position and never think that I arose to this position by my own wisdom or labour.
3. I DECIDE not be slack in extracting work from my subordinates. I will not be lenient but I will be considerate. I will not load them beyond their physical ability or mental capacity.
4. I DECIDE to congratulate my subordinates where they deserve it. I will not take for myself the credit that belongs to them before others but give due credit to their work. I will identify their talents and do my best to develop and promote them. I will not hesitate to accept helpful suggestions from them.
5. I DECIDE not to misuse my God-given authority. I will not use my subordinates for my own personal gain. I decide to be careful not to overstep my authority. I will not show partiality between my workers.
6. I DECIDE not to be covetous. I will be generous with my income. I will liberally give to the poor. I will not withold anything that belongs to my servant or due to her. I will pay her justly and in time. I will not cheat her taking advantage of her illiteracy or ignorance.
7. I DECIDE to be understanding towards my subordinates. When my servant falls sick I will not immediately conclude that she is acting rather treat her with understanding and help her whatever way I can.
8. I DECIDE to show concern for the spiritual wellbeing of my subordinates. I will exhibit the love of Christ in all my dealings with them. I decide to pray for my servant and her family and try my best to bring them to the saving knowledge of the Lord.
9. I DECIDE not to use violence on my servant for anything. I will not beat her, kick her or abuse her. I will not threaten her. I will respect her individuality and treat her like a servant and not like a slave. I will not believe any evil report or rumours about her before taking necessary steps to confirm them. I will praise God for her help and say ‘ Thank you’ now and then.
10. I DECIDE not to covet another man’s servant. I will not tempt him or her by offering better conditions under me. I also decide not to criticise or judge another man’s servant.
