The BODY

I am thankful for the BODY of Christ.
I am learning more and more about living in community and learning to trust others - huge.
Today I has a "vulnerable" time (that was quite unexpected for me...maybe not so much for God) and it made me really have to lean on my brothers and sisters in Christ.
For those of you who know me well, know that I have a longing to go deep with people, but find it very difficult. I sometimes find it hard to believe that what I struggle with really affects anyone else.
Praise the Lord that He revealed a timely Scripture for me -

I Corinthians 12:25-26 that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another. And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
-NKJV

Thank You Lord for that insight today. When one member suffers, ALL suffer. We are called to love one another with deep love and affection.
Thank you to all my brothers and sisters in my session who prayed with/over me today. I am truly blessed to call you friends.

In Him,
