“Always Giving My All”
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
Ashley writes
My life verse, 1 Corinthians 10:31, has impacted me deeply. It’s both convicting and encouraging to think that even down to the most mundane activities of my day, I can and should be doing those to the glory of God!

It’s always a sacrifice to live everyday for Christ, and to always Glorify Him in what we say and do. It’s a battle, no doubt about it, because the enemy is relentless…So I hide behind Jesus for safety. 1 Corinthians 10:31 is Christ directing, and me following him to live that way.
