Well, this is not from Hebrews but just through my own personal QT - "Be careful, however, that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak." (1 Cor 8:9)
How much do I consider my words and my behaviours before I say or do them? I have the freedom to say whatever I want and do whatever I want as long as I don't break the law and get caught and having to ask my friend to defend me in court =p But I will choose to restrain myself of what I say and do because I know it impacts on the lives of people close to my heart.
I can say I don't like the food someone cooks but I choose not say so because I see beyond the food, I see the heart and the love and nothing can taste better when you know the one who has cooked for you has done it out of love.
I will try not to criticise and complain in front of people though sometimes I do behind a closed door with God because I know that it may bring others to become negative in their attitudes.
I will not be lazy and exercise favouritism because I know that people are always watching and even imitating - the tag of Christian is one that is under great scrutiny.
I will choose to speak edifying words than unwholesome talk because I know I am taking part in a conversation that has the potential of changing a life for God.
Am I having my way in the way I live or am I letting God to have His way in the way I live? Will I choose to live for Him and His kingdom? God, I pray that I will grow more and more in your ways because your ways are always better than my ways!
