United as One Body
“…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.” – Ephesians 4:16 NKJV
Reflection
The Church is one body, with Christ as the vine and believers as the branches. Every joint supplies what benefits the whole, and no part is insignificant. We are not to compare, judge, or cut down others but to exhort, strengthen, and uphold one another. Even in times of transition or isolation, we remain united in Him. It is in Christ that the body grows strong in love.
Application
Connection
Thank You, Lord, for placing me in Your body. Help me strengthen others, not compare myself to them. Keep me united with You and with my brothers and sisters in love. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
