We are the body of Christ

Today's carecell was a lot of fun and laughter...who says church is boring?? We studied with the GLN material on Chapter 5, we are the body of Christ. Nicky led in the cell, and we had a pretty fruitful time of discussion...exchanging of ideas, and thoughts. We learned based on the Scripture 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."
That was like the memory verse. Anyways, we learned that the Church of Christ is made up of a variety of people, each with different attitudes, different opinions, different gifts, but we all have one thing in common, that is we are baptised by one Spirit, and worship one God, one unity. However, it doesn't mean that we would never have conflicts, misunderstanding, difference in ideas etc. Sometimes, in voicing out our different opinions, we can also learn from each other, grow with each other, be more patient in virtue, just as the Word that says, "
Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. (KJV)" Prov 27:17 as shared by Joanna.

We then prayed for each other, for healing, and more before having some refreshment. All in all, it was a blessing to gather together!
