The Lord... And Taylor.

In yesterday's sermon (Chosen To Reflect... God's Image), Pastor Althea Taylor shared with us a few points about living out our faith as members of the community of faith. Let’s just reflect on one point for today:

We need each other in order to be (and see) the reflection of Christ in the earth.  As the body of Christ, each individual Christian brings to the table his particular spiritual gift or gift-mix. As our pastor said ( and I paraphrase), no single individual can fully embody the holiness of God; the gifts of His Holy Spirit have been distributed to all persons for the edification of the church. And, as we are built up, we are empowered to reach the world for the glory of God.

Reflection/Meditation: Read First Corinthians 12:12-13.

Are you part of the body, or are you running away from your grace and role?
