Designed to Be

The body of Christ is going to be a dysfunctional, nonfunctional, overly-sensitive, therapeutic mess if we do not value individual unity.

And that’s my big word statement 😉

Here’s the truth.

The Spirit is going to move whether we are doing our function or not. Whether you’re a light or a donkey, God will use you. I would rather be a Light; that’s just me. For sure, I’ve had I’m a donkey days. For sure, God uses those days despite myself OR to remind myself that I’m not designed to be the backside of the body of Christ.

I’m (as Jaclyn) designed to be the pinky toe (balance), the fingertips (author), and the ears (friend) within the Body of Christ.

What about you? What’s your design? Individually? You are so desperately purposed to be YOU. What do you do without effort? _______________________ If you don’t know, study yourself this weekend.

Be aware of your natural function and compare it to a body part. I feel like a goober for saying that sentence, but, for real! There are over 7,500 named body parts. 7,500! Not counting cells and vessels and such. 7,500 individual pieces that function individually to cause our bodies to function in unity.

Sweet friend, your individuality is needed. It is designed. It is intentional. It is hand crafted by God for You. Who are you? What do you do? What makes your inner-flutter giggle? What do your people benefit from you? See how great your YOU is! Not in pride, but in awe of the handiwork of the Creator!

If you don’t know your individual function, ask. Ask your person/people. Ask the Designer to open your eyes to the value of His beautiful piece, You.

Find the worth in His Design, in you!

For sure, don’t be a donkey about it. 😉
