One Body

"God has arranged all the members, placing each part of the body as He pleased. If all were the same part where would the body be? But there are many members and one body." - 1st Corinthians 12:18-20

Each and everyone of you is special and has a very important role in God's overall plan. Just as your different body parts have their own functions, so do all of you have your own parts to play out for God's kingdom here on earth. There are some of you that are great with children and you are their positive role models as they grow up. There are others of you that are so hard working and constantly pick up the pieces for others, and there are also those that are always there to serve those around them, hardly thinking of yourselves. You are doing God's work. God has placed these gifts in you to answer the prayers of those around you. Being a part of the body of Christ not only means that we help the other body parts when they need it, but also, that inspired by God, those other parts are there to serve us as well when we're in need.

Think about how you fit into the body of Christ and how you can better serve the members around you.

Today's Prayer:
Thank You God because we all belong to Your family and You have formed us to help and support those around us. Please bless me and help me to function better as a member of Your holy body. In Your Name we pray, Amen.
