1 Corinthians 12:14-27

When i had a QT last night, reading 1 Corinthians 12:14-27 really reminded me of our J-team. We all are different in many ways and that is how God made us. We have different talents, skills, ethnicity.... but all things belong to Him, not to us.

"Now we are the body of Christ and each one of you is a part of it" Yes! we are part of the body He made for His purpose. " And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, also those having gifts of healing, those able to help others, those with gifts of administration, and those speaking in different tongues"
What if we all were made in exactly the same way, could we work? What if we all were eyes? We would need other body parts to survive.

Through last few trainings, I felt God was bringing us a team unity for His purpose. I am glad to see us building a team unity little by little through what we have participated in. I am very excited to be used by Him for His purpose for Japan.

I still remember my mother, who is non-believer, asked me, "why do you guys (2007 J-team) get along so well?" She sensed the team bond while we spent some time with her in Tokyo. I answered her, "Mom, because we have Christ in center". She looked at me and said, "oh, okay, i see". I know she didn't understand what i meant completely, but i know i made her curious.

Lord, i am so honored to be a part of "the body"
