“But you must be careful so that your freedom does not cause others with a weaker conscience to stumble.” v. 9 (NLT)
WARNING: People are watching! And they are making judgments and adjustments to their life based on how they see you live yours. With social media, what use to be private has now become more public. Every aspect of your life can now be on display and it is impacting others! It impacts the way they see you and how they see Christ.
If we aren’t careful we could cause someone to stumble by the things we do! One of the reasons I have chosen not to drink alcohol is this very reason. Even tho I could, I chose not to because it could cause someone else to justify an addiction if they saw me drinking. This is just one example among many. The reality is we impact others by the things we do and the things we don’t do and we need to be careful about how it impacts others that may be watching!
Today, how will the way you live impact others? Will it challenge them, encourage them, or keep them trapped in a sinful lifestyle. Use your freedom wisely!
