Would it be okay to charge the 12" MacBook with the Thunderbolt 3 cable from the LG Ultrafine 5K display?

This delivers 85W of power. It charges the MacBook (even though the computer cannot use or power the display). But in the long-term, is it okay to just charge the MacBook this way?
 
I sometimes charge my macbook with a 3rd party USB C cable and a 10,000ma powerbank 😀 You'll be fine.
