Something to Think About

For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is. If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
1 Corinthians 3:11-15 NKJV

These verses are not about our salvation. They are about the quality of our service to the Lord and the rewards we will or will not receive for our service. Are we working in our own power and might, or are we following the Holy Spirit's direction? It will be very clear on the Day. God knows the motives of our hearts and that is what will be judged. 

Are we making the most of the opportunities we have to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Are we responding in obedience to Him?  Something to think about...

Prayer:

Father,
