VERSE:
But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do
not eat, and no better if we do. Be careful, however, that the
exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the
weak.
-- 1 Corinthians 8:8-9
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=1+Corinthians+8:8-9
THOUGHT:
We have incredible freedom under grace. However, our freedom
never gives us the license to destroy a weak brother or sister's
walk with the Lord. Let's use our freedom considerately, especially
toward our new brothers and sisters in Christ. These new Christians
need our encouragement; they already have enough stumbling blocks!
PRAYER:
God of all grace, please help me to be an encouragement and a
good example to new Christians and those who are weak in their
faith. Please, help me guard my life from being a bad example to
others. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
