I came across a wonderful article in a TEAMHorizons magazine this morning. It captures what the Body of Christ could be like if we were willing to lay aside differences and personality conflicts and embrace the wonder and beauty of culture and race, gifts and abilities and put these to use in an atmosphere of love and understanding! If the worldwide Body of Christ functioned in the manner that this article describes, then the world would know us by our LOVE! And that would be an amazing thing of beauty!
Please take some time to read "It's all in the preposition" - by Charlie Davis found at the link below.
