1 Cor 3:8-15 (ESV) He who plants & he who waters are one in purpose, & each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s field, God’s building. According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it. For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw— each one’s work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. —It is important to build ourselves, & to build others into faithful, growing in the love of Christ! There are rewards for our labors that are out of this world! Love Mel
