I had a dream in the early hours of this morning.

I was singing and matching with a group of people. All we were singing was “thank you Lord for the body of Christ”. I had never heard the song before and I do not recall ever seeing any of the people I was singing and matching with in that dream but the voices they sang with were  completely out of this world. So my guess is that they were angels.

I woke up still singing the song. It became more real to me that angels celebrate and thank God for the body of Christ. No wonder the bible says “Behold how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity”. (Ps 133:1)

 Indeed, we are all important to God. Possession of different talents or gifts does not denote differences in worth, for all belong to one body and all are interdependent.(Rom 12:3-5) Hence, the reason we have different talents or gifts is that it will be more obvious that we need one another. The need for one another also facilitates love for one another.

 The father’s gift to the body is spiritual gifts. “Having gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them”. (Rom 12:6)

The gifts are placed in the church as resources to be utilized at the point of need for ministry in the body and as a means to fulfilling purpose in life.

 What talent or gift do you believe God has given you? Remember you are an important member of the team and Rom12:6 implore you to use them.
