Ephesians 5:15-20

Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I find it interesting that we are told to know what the Lord's will is (v.17). I hear people praying "Lord, please...if it's Your will." But this verse makes it sound like we should be figuring out what His will is. I would like to do some more research about this.

Also, we are instructed to make "the most of every opportunity." I should start living by this, "...making the most of every opportunity."

There are so many interesting things in the Bible!
