Intricately Made

1 Corinthians 12:18-21 (NLT) 18 But our bodies have many parts, and God has put each part just where he wants it. 19 How strange a body would be if it had only one part! 20 Yes, there are many parts, but only one body. 21 The eye can never say to the hand, “I don’t need you.” The head can’t say to the feet, “I don’t need you.”

When I think about God creating man – I think He did it with a smile on His face. Sometimes – I think He might have even laughed. We are so different. We have so many variations. Some our tall – and some are short. Some are skinny and some are… well you know. When I look at all the parts our body has – it is truly amazing. They are all important. They all coordinate. The feet face a certain direction. Our hands have fingers to pick things up with. Our mouth is centered just right. It’s not on the side of our head. Our eyes are shaped and placed so we can have the maximum sphere of vision. And for some of us – we have hair on the top of our heads. Isn’t that funny? Every part has a place and every part in important. Yet, in the same way – God has put the body of Christ together in the same way. We are all so different yet we are all so important. Every one has a special place and every one is very special to God. We need each other in order to function.
