Just as a body, though one, has many parts,
but all its many parts form one body,
so it is with Christ.
For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body
—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—
and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.
Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.
But God has put the body together,
giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it,
so that there should be no division in the body,
but that its parts should have equal concern for each other.
If one part suffers, every part suffers with it;
if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.

Our pastor is doing a study on the Holy Spirit. It has been quite interesting. I find that I can easily pray for others and truly rejoice in their recovery.
I love being part of the body of Christ here. You all have a voice that allows us to vent our frustrations, and prayers plus rejoice with each other. We can also encourage each other. Just as Christ would have us do.
Thanks God Bless!
