The Kitchen Table Devotional
1 Corinthians 7 Day 4
But I want you to be free from concern. One who is unmarried is concerned about the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord; 33 but one who is married is concerned about the things of the world, how he may please his wife, 34 and his interests are divided.
1 Corinthians 7:32-34
Read 1 Corinthians 7:32-38
Get the spiritual right and the rest will follow. Be careful with who and what you step into a relationship with, in this life. Relationships bring responsibility and concern or anxiety with them. That’s okay but it happens. The problem comes when we put our human relationships in front of our relationship with God. Love and life’s demands can quickly put God’s plans and purpose on the back shelf. God made us for relationships, but if we don’t know what’s important, we will be destroyed by what isn’t important. The best thing to do is to come into agreement about God before we agree to come together in a relationship. And dad, don’t keep your kids from marriage, help them find a godly marriage.
