The body of
Christ as being made up of many parts and each of us has a part of it. There
should be no division in the body and we should have equal concern for each
other. Paul said, “If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not
belong to the body,” it would not for that reason cease to be part of the
body. And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong
to the body,” it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body…The eye
cannot say to the hand, “I don’t need you!” And the head cannot say to the
feet, “I don’t need you” (1 Cor 12:15-16; 21 NIV)! It occurs to me that
the one thing all these body parts have in common, and the one thing that
always gets them in trouble, is the fact that they have a mouth.
