“Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God."
1 Corinthians 10:31
Thank God for enabling us to Live for Him – Part 9
"The natural creation and the creation of grace work together, and what we are apt to call the sordid things, laboring with our hands, and eating and drinking, have to be turned into spiritual exercises by obedience, then we shall 'eat and drink, and do all to the glory of God....
"'Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit' ... the handiwork of God, and it is in these bodies we are to find satisfaction, and that means strenuousness. Every power of mind and heart should go into the strenuousness of turning the natural into the spiritual by obeying the word of God regarding it. If we do not make the natural spiritual, it will become sordid; but when we become spiritual, the natural is shot through with the glory of God."
