Because 50 Day 13
Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 10:23-24, 31-33
23“I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but not everything is constructive. 24No one should seek their own good, but the good of others.
31So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 32Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God— 33even as I try to please everyone in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.
Today’s Prayer:
Lord, please reveal yourself to me through daily life and help me to see all things as a way to glorify you and reach others.
