Day 340 Beyond Rights
Whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 1 Cor. 10:31
This is a nice thought. It's also a guiding principle for everything we do. It means to honoring God by trusting him, obeying him, and imitating Christ in the situations we encounter in our daily lives...including conflicts.
"I have the right to do anything, you say, but not everything is beneficial for you.... No one should seek only their own good but also the good of others...." (Cor. 10:23-24)
Paul says that the issue is not whether you're getting your way or I'm getting mine, bu whether God is having his way in both our lives. This is the way to be at peace with eachother.
God, help Sarah to seek your will for her above all else. Amen.
