The Body of Christ

"Just as each one of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts according to the grace given to us..." Romans 12:4-6a

Do you believe you are a vital member of the Body of Christ? Because you are. Do you believe the church needs you like a body needs a mouth? Because it does.

You have a role. God has given you God-ordained gifts, talents, and passions to use for His glory. The Lord has placed you in a local church body to play a role in that particular body of Christ. God has prepared people for you to minister to, pray for, and serve. He just wants His children to be obedient and fulfill their purpose in Christ. My prayer for you today is that you will understand that you are valued in the kingdom of God, you have a vital role in the body of Christ.
