Living Right

Romans 14:13-18
13Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way. 14As one who is in the Lord Jesus, I am fully convinced that no food is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean. 15If your brother is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother for whom Christ died. 16Do not allow what you consider good to be spoken of as evil. 17For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, 18because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men.


God shows us how to act and how to live our lives. I like how the last verse here says that we please both God AND approved by men by living right lives.

I feel this is true. If we just live our lives according the Holy Spirit, then not only does it please God, but many times it shows others a positive attitude and character, allowing them to trust and approve of our life in the Lord.

Father, without You, there is nothing else. You are the purpose, you are the perfect one. Your majesty is abound. I want to live this life for You. I pray that i may live a life pleasing and right in Your eyes. It is so amazing that all else comes after. You are so good. Help me to do this. I pray this in Jesus name.
Amen
