Our Labor is Not in Vain

There are times as a Christian one may ask himself, is all the hard work and sacrifice worth it, or am I working in vain? The answer is NO!

Paul addressed this very issue several times in his letters to the Corinthians one such time was in

1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

55. O Death where is your sting? O Hades where is your victory?

56 The sting of death is sin and the strength of sin is the law.

57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort.

4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

Remember God is our comfort, and remember to comfort those around you who need comforting in the love of Jesus as you have been comforted by God. And last but not least do not forget our labor is not in vain.
