Fun
<<enjoyment>>
God is not a killjoy, and Christians with sour faces are not a good advertisement for Jesus. Take pleasure in activities and games where you can enjoy yourself while mixing informally with others. Each component of our lives (spirit, soul and body) needs catering for in the right way to be happy, healthy balanced individuals. However, ensure whatever you do can be done to His glory and not cause another to stumble (1 Cor 8:9; Col 3:17).
Wholesome fun is beneficial
in spiritual tragedy. Nor should we get enjoyment at the expense of others, because of their lack of ability, problems, or by mimicking
their actions. Don’t
be deceived by the fleeting pleasures of sin but consider the long-term overall picture (Heb 11:25).
