Unnecessary Amputation
August 26, 2009
God’s body was never meant to be disassembled…why is it that we don’t or can’t see the value in others?
I hate days where I let other peoples behavior keep me from seeing their value. I am not saying that its not important to realize when someone is not following Christ, but when we use it as an excuse to push or write people off – how Christ-like is that? How do you balance keeping in your head what is righteous in Christ without losing mercy and compassion? I also understand that sometimes people cut themselves off – we should pray for them.
Romans 12:4-5
“Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.”-
