“[W]hatever you do, eating or drinking or anything else, everything should be done to bring glory to God.” 1 Cor. 10:31 (Phillips New Testament in Modern English)
It’s soon to be upon us... Christmas! Christ is born. Christians will celebrate the birth of Jesus. It will be a “most wonderful time of the year” as the song goes. But wait a minute. If we ONLY focus on the birth or death of Jesus, we may forget that he lived about 33 years doing the everyday things of life just like you and me. He ran a company making things, he led a team, some of whom gave him grief and challenged or betrayed him. He was frustrated with his team at times and got cross ways with government leaders. He prepared talks given to small and large groups, he got mad and cried. He got tired, was under extreme stress, and his good accomplishments were misunderstood. He was finally killed at a young age.
