Everyday Photo

Everyday Photo

I disagreed with a friend about using a photo they took of me and wanted to use for publication.  And although I understood their reasons for using the photo, our lengthy debate in emails started to convince me I might be doing something wrong. So I asked God; “What should I do about the photo?”

My answer was in Romans Chapter 14 which told me about Paul not eating certain foods because if he did it would trip up his friends.  It wasn’t wrong or sin for him to eat the food he wanted but the right thing was to refrain so there would be harmony. Verse 15 is great and by putting the word photo instead of food I had my answer; “But if your brother is being pained or his feelings hurt or if he is being injured by you not using the photo then you are no longer walking in love.” One thing I am convinced of?  God wants us always to walk in love…everyday.  For more encouragement in Everyday Matters visit DebbieGriffith.com
