Jesus is always available and ready!

Point taken. However, I'm REALLY glad HE did this time. - I hate "laboring in vain"

I concur that this is wonderful news, and I know what you mean by this, however, anything we do for Kingdom sake is not in vain.

Someone plants, another waters and God gives the increase.

We may never see the result of our labor, but that doesn't mean someone won't respond later because of the seed of the Word y'all planted here.

Thanks! I agree with you. There is profit in all labor for the Kingdom.

Did paul call his labor 'in vain'???

1Co 3:6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
1Co 3:7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
1Co 3:8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labor.


"In vain".... sheesh...
