Wednesday, January 25th - 1 Corinthians 6:12, 10:23-24

Good Morning!

Wasn't GEMS great last night?  Lisa really brought it home!  I had a lot to think about when I was listening and after returning home.  I stayed up quite late and did some real soul searching.  How about you?

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: 1 Corinthians 6:12, 10:23-24 ~ You can do whatever you want, but the FULL truth is, some things are not good for you.  Ask God to help you remove them.

"Everything is permissible for me"--but not everything is beneficial.  "Everything is permissible for me" --but I will not be mastered by anything."  1 Corinthians 6:12
"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."  1 Corinthians 10:23-24

I think these verses are pretty clear.  As Lisa said, we can do whatever we want, but it isn't always good for us or beneficial.  We need to follow the instructions that God has given us and live to please Him.  God has given us everything we need and we need to follow Him!

As Lisa tweeted, Ask God to remove those things that are not beneficial or constructive in your day to day life.  He will provide the strength to change and to say NO.

Happy Wednesday!
