Have you ever felt a vast difference in your ways of thinking or operating between you and a fellow brother or sister in Christ? Or wished that people in church had the same qualities or opinions as you have?
This article really enlightened me further on how, as a body of Christ, we are united in Christ, yet God has made us each unique, and we can complement each other! :) As someone commented, this article is summarised in 1 corinthians 12, and I think it puts the bible passage into practical, everyday terms!
Let's learn to accept and cherish each other for the differences in the way God has made us! We can actually use these differences to build each other up to become more like Christ! I think it also helps us understand the importance of speaking up in love and being open to receiving suggestions/rebukes from others, after all we are a family in Christ. :)
