Today's full reading: 1 Corinthians 10:14-33
"'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." (1 Corinthians 10:23-24, 31 NIV)
Sometimes the Bible seems hard to understand and apply. There are lots of individual situations that the Bible seems to be silent on. However, principles such as the one above are overarching and guide us to make right choices. I have heard many when in doubt sayings through the years; the best one I can glean from this passage is simply: When in doubt make sure you're giving glory to God!
Today, as an act of worship, honor God in everything you do. Let your lifestyle today be a dynamic expression of your affection for God.
