The body of Christ


I saw this photo and immediately thought about the body of Christ....the church....OUR church. I love the way our church works together to meet the needs of the body. Our ladies cook meals for those in need, help one another, pray for one another and our men will gather to mow a lawn, fix a roof, or help a family with things they can't do alone....for no other reason than the love of God working through them. When you see the love of God flowing through a group of believers it's a place you want to be. I'm glad I'm part of a church family like this. There's nothing more exciting that caring for one another for no other reason than we are loved by God and invited to imitate his love and share it with others.

(Here's a story that shows what the church should look like to those around us.)
