"We all are important not just the VIP!"

1 Corinthians 12 - 13

God has a calling on each and everyone of our lives. And these callings are wonderful gifts from God that we use to bring Him Glory and Honor. But sometimes we let these gifts divide us because we assume that one gift is more valuable than another. The Pastor is no more important than the church goer, The Actor is not more important than their fan, The Worker is not more important than the employee, etc. 

It is easy to miss the point of 1 Corinthians 13 if you don't read 1 C
orinthians 12. Paul was stating that gifts are great but they are to be used to build the Body of Christ and not divide it. All gifts and callings are equally important and one is not greater than the other. And regardless of how talented you think you are or actually are, if you lack love you gift is worthless.

We are one body united in the Lord with one goal and that is bring God glory and lead others to Him. If we are looking down on others it because we are not looking up to Jesus. We are bound in the unity of God's Love. Love is the most excellent way. Stay focused, you can do this.

"In His JOY!"
