 | Romans 12:4 |
"Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function..."
Many people describe missionaries as the legs in the body of Christ. They do the stepping out; without legs, the body would go nowhere, stagnated and growing fat. But the legs would be nothing without the rest of the body. The head, of course, is Christ. Congregations can be seen as the trunk, to provide vital support functions for the legs. The legs cannot be strong unless the trunk is strong as well. Rejoice today that even though you may never be able to be Christ's legs by becoming a missionary, you can be a vital part of the missionary enterprise through your financial and prayer support.
 | Teach me, Father, how I can make the trunk more healthy! |
