1 Cor. 12:12 “For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also in Christ.”
Last time, I cut my forefinger with a knife while slicing the potatoes. Well, its just a small cut about two millimeter deep. But i keep noticing the slight pain and itch it brought to my whole body that i need to put bandage on it! You see, we are very very good at keeping watch over our own body! If something goes out of line then we want to sort it out straight away. If something is experiencing pain, we want to take good care of it right away.
We are very alert when it comes to our own physical body. But how about Christ Who is the head of the Body (Church)? The verse above tells us that we are the Body of Christ. And if we care for our own body when it feels even a little discomfort, How much more is Christ towards us. The discomfort that you feel, even if how little is it, rest assured that Christ knows them.
