Labouring Together

 

Today's verse is 1 Corinthians 3:7-8

     So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 

    Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 

Some very important things to understand here. First, You and I are as NOTHING, all that we have and are, are of God. All that we do of any worth, is of God. I am not greater than you, nor are you greater than me, whatever respective positions we may each have, (though we must honor such positions.) Now having said all of that. All that we allow God to do through us, we will not be unrewarded, as we are faithful to him, he will be faithful to us, and as we submit to him, he will lift us up. Let us, therefore, not be jealous one for another, for we each have our place, we each have our own gifts, according to God’s purpose for each of us. And we each have the same potential for reward, and we are all just as prone to lose it. So let us give him the Glory, for it is already his. Amen.

To God be the Glory
