1 Corinthians 12:26 If one part suffers,every part suffers with it,if one part is honoured every part rejoices with it.
Have you ever paid attention to your body?do you realise that when you hear good news or something wonderful happens to you or a close one first o all you will shout with your mouth or joy and gladness,your hands will be raised high in jubilee and your feet will be jumping up and down celebrating and your body will be moving side to side or whichever way it chooses to go.The same also happens when faced with not pleasant news every part of your body is tired or just bluh.As i was reading this verse last week and how apostle Paul servant of God wrote to tell us how we are one body in the Lord Jesus and baptised by one spirit into the body and how we all serve a different purpose in the body of Christ to reach the goal we have been called to or fulfill our purpose in the body.If one part suffers the other suffers with it.I observed myself on wednesday just to see how my body would respond and i was amazed how everything in me was involved from my head to my toes and emotions and environment.What i am aiming at is that we should always be there to rejoice with our brothers and sisters in the Lord when they suffer we suffer,when they rejoice we rejoice,we need to arise as a body and stop fighting against each other and looking at ourselves better that the other brother/sister or my church is better than your church no Jesus is coming for his church,his body,his bride the church he shed his blood for that is you,me and everyone that is a believer in him for we all form one unit.Recently when my friend was going through some challenges in her life and she was overwhelmed by her present circumstance as i listened to her speak,i was sad because i didn't know what to do but the best i could tell her was that God loves you and he has a purpose for you,he cares for you and he is fully aware o what is going on,i was crying inwardly not for myself but for her i felt like her issue now became mine,her burden was now my burden,in this i learned that when you cry the hand will wipe your tears when you are walking the eyes will be fixed on where you are heading or the ground you are walking on,when you are tired and you need a place to rest your shoulder or back will rest itself against a wall so that your whole body can regain strength.To eat food you need your hand to put the food in your mouth,teeth to chew,tongue to taste,your thoat to carry the food to the stomach each member in the body of Christ has a purpose and even the people God brings in your life serves a purpose you cannot be two friend who are both hands or eyes one has to be the eyes and the other one the ears,one has to be the hands the other one the legs.Therefore let us be glad that we are part of the body and rejoice with one another in whatever situation.
