" TEAMWORK "

Good Morning All,

As always it's wonderful to have the opportunity to chat with you again. This week we are tackling the subject of " Teamwork " a subject that I believe most of us take for granted. Let's just see what and how the dear Lord thinks of teamwork.

What are your thoughts on teamwork, those of you who have participated in organized sports have a inclination of the concept of teamwork. From birth we are introduced to teamwork, we just called it FAMILY. Our family/team cared for us and always had our backs. When we gave our lives to the Lord we joined the Lords team. As Christians we are to assist one another, when times get rough we must band together. The word teamwork: (n) Partnership, Collaboration, Union, Alliance, Cooperation.

In the Body of Christ, one body part is useless without the others. Now, in our individualistic society, it is easy to forget our independence with other Christians. When we are called by God to a task, remember that he is calling others to work along with us. When we work together, caring for the problems of others as if they were our problems, we demonstrate Christ's example of putting others first, and we experience unity. Now, don't be so concerned about making a good impression on meeting your own needs that you strain relationships in God's family.

As members of the Body of Christ we are not alone in life, and we should be able to count on others for support and prayer, especially when they are sick or suffering. As mature Christians you should be alert to pray for the needs of all others. Now have a Christ filled day.

Until Next Time...

Jim
