Pick the verse that speaks to you!
Scripture: Everything is permissible - but not everything is beneficial. Everything is permissible - but not everything is constructive. Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others.
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the Glory of God. Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God - even as I try to please everybody in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved. Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ. NIV
Observation: With all of our personal freedoms that we have, we need to consider others in the choices that we make.
Application: I can remember the lowest times in my life that came from decisions that I made for myself without considering how my decision affected those around me. The highest times in my life were the times that I did things because I wanted to help others first instead of just helping myself. I felt more blessings by putting others first.
Prayer: Lord, you have set the example of putting others before yourself by dying for our sins on the cross. For that I cannot thank you enough. Be with me in my daily walk that I may continue to put others first, so that I may be an example of your love for me.
Yes: My actions will reflect the examples of Christ.
