Musings With My John Wesley Bobblehead

 

 

If your John Wesley Bobble-head is distracting you, it's probably because it is so distracting. I figure you've got two choices: (a) remove the Bobble-head completely or (b) leverage the moment to consider WWJWD. 

I picked "(b)," and asked myself, "What Would John Wesley Do?" 

This morning I read this advice in Wesley's work, The Character of a Methodist.

By consequence, whatsoever he doeth, it is all to the glory of God. In all his employments of every kind, he not only aims at this, (which is implied in having a single eye,) but actually attains it. His business and refreshments, as well as his prayers, all serve this great end. Whether he sit in his house or walk by the way, whether he lie down or rise up, he is promoting, in all he speaks or does, the one business of his life; whether he put on his apparel, or labour, or eat and drink, or divert himself from too wasting labour, it all tends to advance the glory of God, by peace and good-will among men. His one invariable rule is this, "Whatsoever ye do, in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him."

 

1 Corinthians 10:31  -  Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
