You are Christ's body -- that's who you are! You must never forget this.
1 Corinthians 12: 27, The Message
"Important in any community of faith is an ever-renewed expectation in what God is doing with our brothers and sisters in the faith. ... We refuse to predict our brother's behavior, our sister's growth. Each person in the community is unique; each is specially loved and particularly led by the Spirit of God.
A community of faith flourishes when we view each other with this expectancy, wondering what God will do today in this one, in that one. ... They are new persons each morning, endless in their possibilities."
