1 Corinthians 10:31 - Maxim for Living.
1 Corinthians 10:31 (NKJV) Therefore,
whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all
to the glory of God.
INTRODUCTION
The supreme maxim of duty, applies to all
that Christians eat or drink indeed to
whatever they do; [Expositor's Greek
Testament]
COMMENTARY PEARL
Work Well
Work is a part of God's plan for our
lives. Work is not something we do just to put food
on the table; it is one of the major ways God
has given us to bring glory to Him. In God's
eyes work has dignity and importance, which means
we should do our work with pride and diligence
and integrity.
But our work was never meant to become
the center of our lives. That place belongs only
to God, and when we allow our work to dominate
and control us, then it has become an idol to
us. Someone who brags about working seventy
hours a week probably thinks he is the master of
his job - but in reality he has become its
slave. In addition, because his life is so wrapped
up in work, his sense of self-worth often comes
to depend on his ability to work. Society only
reinforces this view. But God says you are greater than
your work, and your work is only a part of His
plan for you.
Have you allowed work to become the
center of your life? [Peace for Each Day by Billy
Graham]
