Galatians 6:4-5, 7-9

Pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won't need to compare yourself to anyone else. For we are each responsible for our own conduct.

Don't be misled-you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit. So let's not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don't give up.

Scripture talks a lot about planting and harvesting. We are all planting things now that we will harvest in the future. For each of the actions below, what does Scripture say you will harvest? For example: if you are planting self-control, what does Proverbs 25 say you will harvest?

Plant Now -> Harvest Later

Self-Control -> Proverbs 25:28

Laziness -> Proverbs 18:4

Hard Work -> Proverbs 21:5

Respecting Others -> Proverbs 11:17

Accepting Correction -> Proverbs 15:31-32

Lying -> Proverbs 19:5

1 Corinthians 6:12-20

You say, "I am allowed to do anything" -but not everything is good for you. And even though though "I am allowed to do anything," I must not become a slave to anything. You say, "Food was made for the stomach and the stomach for food." (This is true, though someday God will do away with both of them.) But you can't say that our bodies were made for sexual immorality. They were made for the Lord, and the Lord cares about our bodies. And God will raise us from the dead by his power, just as he raised our Lord from the dead. Don't you realize our bodies are actually parts of Christ? Should a man take his body, which is part of Christ, and join it to a prostitute? Never! And don't you realize that if a man joins himself to a prostitute, he becomes one body with her? For the scriptures say, "Two are united into one." But the person who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him.

Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. Don't you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.

This passage makes the distinction between lawful and helpful. Even if we have freedom to do something, it may not be helpful if we are trying to follow Jesus. What are some things you are currently doing (watching, thinking about, relationships etc.) that are not helping you follow Jesus?
