And thank you for the
beauty you brought to our little
'puter screens today, Meg!
Prayers for you and your daughter!

[jaycee]

How precious those little ones are! I bet the audience adored the innocence of it all. Would have loved to have seen it. LOL!

[jaycee]

I haven’t heard her version. I heard Kenny Rogers and Wynona sing it today. I love the song too. I’m still smiling about the little children’s play!

[yorkie]

JC, I tried to listen to Kenny Rogers and Wynona Judd sing that song - but the audio was so low (on every link at You Tube), I couldn’t hear it. (But, I just KNEW it would be good!)

[jaycee]

Did you turn up your volume and their’s? Sometimes I have to turn both up. I found it on a website. If I can find it in the morning, I’ll send you the link!

[yorkie]

Yes, I had my computer speakers and the video speakers turned all the way up.

That would be great, if you could send me the link!

READ: 1 Corinthians 3:1-9

We are God’s fellow workers. —1 Corinthians 3:9

On May 29, 1953, New Zealander Edmund Hillary and his Sherpa guide, Tenzing Norgay, became the first people to reach the peak of Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world. Since Tenzing did not know how to use the camera, Edmund took a photo of Tenzing as evidence that they did reach the top.

Later, journalists repeatedly asked who had reached the summit first. The expedition leader, John Hunt, replied, “They reached it together, as a team.” They were united by a common goal, and neither was concerned who should get the greater credit.

It is counterproductive to try to determine who deserves the most credit when something is done well. The church at Corinth was split into two factions—those who followed Paul, and those who followed Apollos. The apostle Paul told them, “I planted, Apollos watered . . . . Neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters” (1 Cor. 3:7). He reminded them that they were “God’s fellow workers” (v.9), and it is God who gives the increase in ministry (v.7).

Our concern about who deserves the credit serves only to take away the honor and glory that belong to the Lord Jesus alone.

Let others have the honors,
The glory, and the fame;
I seek to follow Jesus
And glory in His name. —Horton

Jesus must increase; I must decrease.

Bible in One Year: Micah 4-5; Revelation 12

Have a great day everyone!
