What I’m thinking about today…
Imagine if you didn’t have a spine or a backbone. How would your life be different? Could you run? Walk? Sit on your own? Stand up? Support your head?
The phrase “get a backbone” is often said to someone who lacks courage. And I wonder how many of us really need to “get a backbone”??
The Bible refers to the church as being one body with different members. Not everyone is an eye, or a hand, or an arm, etc… But imagine what would happen if the body (the church) lacked a spine or backbone? Would everything function as it should? Would there be any support?
Without a spine (courage) the church cannot walk with Christ… it cannot run to reach out to the community…. it cannot support the members of the church… it cannot function as it should.
Everyone wants to be an eye, or an ear, or an arm, etc… but who here is willing to be part of the spine/backbone?? Who is willing to give the body the support that it needs?
I encourage us all to GET A BACKBONE!!
