Good Morning.  Here’s Today’s Nugget to chew on:

“Make It Count”

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 Amplified Bible (AMP)

1 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love [for others growing out of God’s love for me], then I have become only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal [just an annoying distraction]. 2 And if I have the gift of prophecy [and speak a new message from God to the people], and understand all mysteries, and [possess] all knowledge; and if I have all [sufficient] faith so that I can remove mountains, but do not have love [reaching out to others], I am nothing. 3 If I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it does me no good at all.

Further Thought:  As believers [those who have received Jesus as Lord], whatever we do must be done in love, or today’s passage reminds us it does us no good.  Yes, what we do may still bless others, but you and I don’t want the blessing to end there.  No, we should desire the corresponding benefit to be made manifest in our lives.  So, let’s make our acts of love count, and we do this according to 1 Corinthians 13:4-6, by remaining in love no matter the situation or the circumstance.  

Have a great day, and keep chewing on God’s Word.
