language similar to 1 Corinthians 13:1-3.

If I serve in every church program
but do not show love to others
I am a sounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
If I make time to study theology
and understand all mysteries
and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith
but do not have love for those around me, I am nothing.
And if I give a tithe to pay for church programs, staff and buildings
and if I give all my time to serve these programs
but do not have love, I gain nothing.

3.  Blood Levels

Testing magnesium levels to find if they are normal requires a simple blood draw. Levels are considered normal in the range of 1.7 to 2.2 mg/dL. Your doctor might choose to test your magnesium levels if you have tested low for potassium and calcium or if you have a history of kidney disease. Sometimes your body will released store magnesium from your bones to make up for a deficiency. In this situation, your blood test could read normal, but additional testing or symptoms may lead your doctor to find that your magnesium levels are in fact not normal.
