"But if anyone says to you, "This has been offered in sacrifice," then do not eat it, both for the sake of the man who told you and for conscience' sake the other man's conscience, I mean, not yours. For why should my freedom be judged by another's conscience? If I take part in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of something I thank God for?
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
And you should imitate me, just as I imitate Christ."
Saint Paul reminds us to imitate Christ in all we do. Our freedom should not be judged by others except by God alone. Thanking God for all we do, and giving Him praise.
1 Corinthians 10:12-13
"If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall. The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure."
We are also reminded to be careful where we stand. God remains faithful always offering us a way out of our struggles as long as we stay TRUE to his word.
So keep focused on whatever you do, your work, at home or at a social function among friends.
God Bless
Tim
