8/13/25 RLB 1Cor 8:1-3

Now regarding your question about food that has been offered to idols. Yes, we know that “we all have knowledge” about this issue. But while knowledge makes us feel important, it is love that strengthens the church.
Anyone who claims to know all the answers doesn’t really know very much.
But the person who loves God is the one whom God recognizes.

When the world is all up and in your face, and you’re feeling very small.
Remember the one who loves you the most, your God who made it all.
He is always there, God knows it all; even your thoughts inside.
So focus your thoughts only on His loving face. Only on God abide.

Focus your heart not on what you ‘ll get, or the knowledge you will gain.
Instead absorb yourself with loving others, the way God loves the same.
Remember our reward is not found on earth, or even our brief life time.
Our reward, God’s prepared and is waiting there, to one day blow our mind!

So when this world is all up in your face and you’re thinking you are small.
Think again, my friend, for God knows your heart, and He so loves us all.
For God so loves us all!
