A Mighty Word ~ honor

"Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe."  Phil. 2:14-15

How many times have we heard, thought, or said, "I don't want to..."?  As adults, we know we don't have to "want to" in order to carry out necessary duties or obligations.  We do them because we're supposed to or because they need to be completed. However, we can choose to perform our duties and obligations with an attitude that honors our Heavenly Father as well as the beneficiaries of our actions.  That means no complaining, right? Easier said than done, i know.  

Yet, what better way to HONOR your Heavenly Father than to love and serve others and to carry out duties or obligations without complaining? 
You will find support for this challenge on the Weekly Words to Live By Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/weeklywordstoliveby/ and in the Words to Live By devotional book (pages 97-102).  Shine on!

We are loved and chosen by God, 
may we live like we believe it,
