Everyone Matters

Everyone Matters

by | Jul 15, 2022

Every member of the Body matters and every joint supplies. There is only one body of Christ and Jesus is the Head. Everyone matters. We do not compete, but complete one another; and we do not compare ourselves with others. We are all gifted because of the greatest gift that lives in us, Jesus Christ, our Lord. By His Spirit, we shine forth His Glory! 

Low self-esteem can cause us to believe we have no gifts at all, while pride can make us think we are more gifted than others. No one is greater than another. To minister means to serve. We are all servants, and we need each other. United, we can do greater works in the name of Jesus. When we disregard one part of the Body, we hinder others, including ourselves. 

We serve and stay faithful wherever we are, in whatever we do, with no complaint. It is all for the glory of God, so it’s never insignificant. Above all, we walk in love: appreciate, encourage, and celebrate one another. We rest in Him and rejoice forevermore. We endeavor to be good stewards of what God places in our hands, from glory to glory!

Ephesians 4:16 “from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.”

 

 

 

United, we Stand!

United, we Stand!

Members of the Body of Christ, the Church, unite in faith and in spirit. One body. One team. We are the branches; Jesus Christ is the vine. Every joint supply what benefits the whole. Everyone is valuable and believers expect the best from each other. Our connection matters, strengthens and empowers us in our walk.


Focusing on the Lord keeps us from paying attention to the other branches. Our place is to consider our own fruitfulness, not judge the lack we assume in others. To deprecate ourselves or others assaults the grace of God. We do not cut any branch down but uphold and exhort those in need. We do not pick at other branches but pick from them. United, we stand!

When in transition or transformation, we might sense a separation from other branches. A feeling of loneliness and disconnection. This might lead us to stay away from others, but that is when we are to reach for a closer union, starting with the Lord. It’s in Him we live and have our being; we remain strong in faith, hope, and love, from glory to glory!
