The Body of Christ

Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body...

-1 Corinthians 12:12-13

We have only been here for just under a week, yet it has been amazing to experience the body of Christ through our new church family. We have been blessed over and over again by the people in our church. We have already talked a little about the couple that we are living with. We have no idea what we would have done this first week without them! They are just one of the many people who have showed us what it means to be the body of Christ. Another example came from a couple that we met on Friday. After we met them, they felt God showing them a way to serve Him by letting us have one of their cars for the two years that we are here. Not only that but they want to take care of the insurance on the car as well!! We were absolutely blown away by their generosity and when we thanked them, all he could say was that the thanks belonged only to God for the blessings that He gives us in this life by being obedient to Him.

Praise God for his many blessings. We are looking forward to spending more time with our new church family and learning from them.
