Thought of the Day-12/8/2009

The Word for the day is
Link
1. a ring that connects with others to make up a chain,

or something resembling a ring in a chain
2. something that ties, connects, or relates two or more things

Yesterday we considered the importance of staying connected, of making

a connection with our Heavenly Father.

Today we look at what keeps us connected. We stay connected

by links, something that ties us to the body of Christ.

We talk about in the Word of God how there is one body,

but many parts doing different things. As we are all

apart of the body, we serve different functions.

As we serve in different capacities we form links

with one another.

I am linked to the body, as a foot I sing in the

praise choir, trying to minister in song to someone's spirit.

As a hand I am there as a minister to pray with

someone, as well as to lend a hug.

As a toe I am there to tip toe

behind the scenes in order to fill in the gaps

where needed.

I am linked to the body because I chose to be

linked. I chose to stay plugged in to what is

going on. I encourage you if you are

struggling in your walk, if you are having

trouble finding your way to get linked with

the body. A link refers to two or

more things, so you are not a link

unless you become connected.

Why not link with the Lord Most High?

The only one I know that can provide you with

what you are looking for.
