VOD: verse of the day

We each have a special purpose

Verse for the Day
Now the body is not made up of one part but of many
But in fact God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be.
1 Corinthians 12:14,18

These 2 verses come from a study that my life group is doing. It is by Kay Arthur and goes through 1 and 2 Corinthians. This part of the study focused on spiritual gifts, and what I am learning is that God created each of us in a unique way. We are created to worship Him, and were formed by His fingers. We are reflections of Him, and that is really cool. The body of Christ is made up of all of us, many parts, each are important. I've realized how my actions impact the whole, and how my sin can affect the overall health of the body of Christ. In order to be a healthy, functioning body; we need to hold each other accountable and dwell in God's word so we can be obedient. I just think that its awesome to know that God values each of us so much, and we really are special to Him. We are covered by His grace, and that makes us beautiful.
