“He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.” – Eph 4:16
The last few days we've been talking about how we're all connected. Quantum Physicists are discovering how everything is connected but really they're affirming what the Bible has always said. What each of us does affects every other thing, regardless of whether we see a connection or not and if we play our part in keeping the body ‘healthy', it's beneficial for us as well as the whole body. I love that this passage teaches us that “He makes the whole body fit together…” – It's interesting that when Jesus was at the last supper, He broke bread and said “this is my body which is broken for you”. During the trial Jesus suffered before dying a the cross His body was certainly broken. He endured some of the most cruel punishment. He endured this so that EVERY SINGLE PERSON could experience a life-giving relationship with God. His brokenness covered our brokenness. What was imperfect in us was made perfect by Him…so perfect that we fit together for a purpose! You may look at your life and say “I don't fit anywhere, I'm all bent and broken out of shape” but that doesn't matter any longer. In Jesus your shape has been made perfect to fit just for a purpose…to aid and benefit the whole body! And when you function in your “own special work” you are a blessing to every person. Today realise that it's through Christ that you fit perfectly and your perfect fit helps and aids the whole body! Have the best day friends…
