Collaboration: The Ministry of the Body of Christ

The scripture tells us that the Body of Christ is connected with joints and bands.
Every joint has been given a responsibility TO supply nourishment to one another.
God's Word says that we are individual members of one Body.
I live in a rural state that many pride themselves of not needing anyone. This promotes isolation. It is true that we as Christians all have the same commission but we also have individual assignments to fulfill the great commission.
Ministry outside of the church walls does not mean that you are not connected to the Body of Christ even though it FEELS like you are. Thank God we are not governed by our Feelings but rather by the Word of God. The Great Commission is principled by the Church the Body of Christ ministering or serving outside of the walls of the church not in them.
This is the only way that the Kingdom of God advances and expands in the earth.
It is my prayer that we honor each person's assigned role or ministry so that Grace can be multiplied to us in our generation as we serve. The scripture says thst we are co-laborers together. So
may we leverage the resources we have been given through our individual gifts and talents and collaborate together so that we can rejoice in the fruit of our labor.
Blessings
Sandra Jones
