I Cor. 12:27 Now all of you together are Christ’s body, and each
one of you is a separate and necessary part of it. NLT
Much has already been
said about this very important truth. I just want to remind you today that you
are who you are because God made you that way and you are a necessary part of
the body of Christ. No one can be you except for you. You are not, nor can you
ever be, like someone else. You are as equally necessary and important to the
cause of Christ as the most visible and talented servant of the Lord. Don’t
believe the lie of Satan that you aren’t. There is no pecking order in God’s Kingdom.
He sees and loves all of His children equally. We all live by the same rules
and will be held accountable for them. No one will stand before God and given a
break because of who they are or what they have done.
So the next time you
are prone to feel sorry for yourself or question your worth to God because you
aren’t like somebody else, just remember this verse. YOU are a separate and
necessary part of the body of Christ. You are on equal footing with all of
God’s children. In God’s eyes, there is no such thing as a pecking order. He
loves you for who you are, not for who others think you are, or who you may
think you are.
