S - 2 Corinthians 6:3 We live in such a way that no one will stumble because of us, and no one will find fault with our ministry.
O - Paul was talking to the Corinthians that they are living a life that contained hardships so that they could both teach others about Jesus and so that the present followers wouldn't be led astray by anything that they did.
A - I have people depending on me and watching what I do. Because of this, I need to be extra careful with what I do and say and think as these individuals will follow me in my thought, words, and actions regardless of whether it is right or wrong. In addition, there are thoughts that are not being led by me but may still know that I'm a follower of Jesus Christ and if my thoughts, words, and actions don't line up with the Bible or give these people a view of someone that is not living an upright life, I'm giving Christians and Jesus a bad name in which they will never want to be associated with.
P - God, Help me to always be aware of how my thoughts, words, and actions affect other people around me, either directly or indirectly. Give me the strength and courage to do what is right all of the time regardless of what others might think or the consequences of my actions. I praise you for all that you have done and the love that you constantly give to me and those around me. Bless my family and me today.
