- No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
- “I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but not everything is constructive.
- No one should seek their own good, but the good of others.
- So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
