Read 1 Corinthians 12:12-31.
Now more than ever the Church - the Body of Christ - is called to let its light shine. We are living in uncertain times. We are experiencing and living through what many of us have never seen before. How do you think the Church can heed Paul’s call to view every member of the Body of Christ in the season in which we’re living? What does it look like for every member of Christ’s Church to do their part and to be the Church? Remember: the Church is not a building; it’s the people.    

So, how might you be the Church today?

  1. I'm sharing this with my kids tonight. We are four adults and one teenager with very different personalities, cooped up in a house trying to get along and ride this out.

    We are all called to different things, but we need to appreciate each other's differences instead of having them be a source of conflict.

    And most of all we need to appreciate that we are safe, and healthy, and not in need - there are so many out there who cannot say the same.

Read James 1:2-15. One of the greatest challenges I face is seeing the trials that I face as assets. It is through those trials – difficult and distressing as they may be – that my faith becomes stronger. In them I learn to trust in God’s providence and His promises. So today, instead of grumbling or bemoaning, I want to ask:   “God, what can I learn today? How can I grow?”

Read John 15:1-17. The phrase from this passage that stands out the most to me is found in verse 15: “I no longer call you servants … instead I have called you friends.” This speaks to me of a different kind of God – a God who desires a relational connection to each of us. That echoes throughout the passage, of course, with the imagery of branches connected to the vine. But to be considered a friend of Jesus is a far more intimate image for me. As with any friendship, I need to cultivate that friendship, spending time with Him, talking to Him, listening to Him. That’s my goal today.

Read John 4:5-26.  The story of the Samaritan woman reminds me that everything in this life will eventually leave us to thirst again. The things of this life come and go. But in Jesus, our thirst is forever quenched. In Jesus, everything we need is provided. In Jesus, our lives are complete and whole. So why seek anything else? Why drink from the well of this world and be thirsty again? Come to Jesus and never thirst again.
