"'I have the right to do anything,' you say—but not everything is beneficial. 'I have the right to do anything'—but I will not be mastered by anything." -I Corinthians 6:12 (NIV)
Many people feel they have the right to say or do whatever they feel or want to do. While we may have a right to do many different things, we also have responsibilities. We need to be responsible members of society and within our families. We are also responsible to the calling of God!
God calls us to follow Him. While we have the right and ability to choose our own path, the best choice is follow God's calling. Once we choose God's path, we also have responsibility to act according to God's will. We need to see what paths and actions are beneficial. We need to avoid being mastered by sin and instead listen to the only One that can deliver us from our sin. We can hold onto our rights and exercise them with the responsibility that God has shown us!
Use your right to choose and make the responsible choice to follow God!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the blessings You provide in my life. Help me to make the right and responsible choices in my life. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
