“So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another” (Romans 12:5). 

My left hand is a member of my body.
And so is my right hand.
The right hand cannot direct the left hand and vice versa.
But both hands can receive instruction from the head.

If one hand is connected to the head and the other hand is connected to the head-
– then it simply follows that our hands are going to submit one to another.

They’re not going to fight one another!

It’s the same way in the-
Body of Christ!
The Church!!

Who is the head of the body?
The Lord Jesus Christ!

Who are the members of the body?
You and I are.

God put us in the church together that we might have-
– a spirit of submission in the fear of the Lord!

Is there someone in the church with whom you’re having difficulties?

Submit yourself to the Lord!
And allow Him to give you grace to submit to one to another!

Some of the most fascinating trees I have ever seen are the magnificent California and West Coast redwoods.
They reach their leafy arms heavenward, commonly growing 200 to 275 feet tall.
The tallest one in Humboldt County, California, towers 368.6 feet in height.
These trees stand like sentinels of time and have done so for hundreds of years.
They’ve been through winds, earthquakes, fires and storms—still they stand.
Nothing seems to deter them.
What is so amazing is that these trees, among the tallest in the world, have a comparably shallow root system and yet they rarely ever fall.
How do they keep standing even in the wildest of storms?
It’s because the redwood’s root systems reach out for great distances and are intertwined with one another.
They literally hold each up other up.
If you and I are going to reach our full potential-
– we too need the support of each other,
– not to be overdependent!
– but inter-dependent!
None of us can stand alone!
As Solomon also said, “If two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken” (Ecclesiastes 4:11-12).
