In Need Of... Fellowship.

Strange how sometimes Christians think that other Christians are invincible. And they may not realize what they are doing.
As Christians we need to fellowship together. God has called us as individuals to become part of a body. One Christian cannot be a body alone.
When Paul spoke to the Corinthians about the body, he said, "And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it (I Cor. 12:26)." Are we doing this for the rest of the body? Are we too wrapped up in ourselves to consider the other members of the body? As much as i may feel like i am being neglected sometimes, am i fulfilling MY duties as a member of the body?
Paul also expressed this to the Romans. Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honour giving preference to one another... Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep."
God has provided us with many people to care for and to care for us.
