We are the Body

15but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ, 16from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love.

Ephesians 4:15-16 (NASB)

• We have to remember to let Jesus do the leading, and we follow. Our actions should always be inspired by Him.
  
• By seeking truth, and living according to what is written in the word of God, and by listening to Jesus and the instruction He gives us, we can follow Christ's lead and let Him work through us.
  
• My work needs to be in unity and in alignment with God's will so that I may function properly as a member of Christ's body.
  
• Our roles as members of the body of Christ is important for proper function and growth of the whole body.
  

Dear Heavenly Father, may I be a better servant for you and always strive to become stronger and stronger in You. May the things I do only glorify You, LORD. May my actions be an attraction to bring those that do not know You to come to know You and become a member of Your body. I just want to be more like You, Jesus. Your great qualities gives new life to us all! ~Amen
