The body of Christ is made up of many members. The church, is made up of many born again believers of whom God have given gifts and talents to. These gifts and talents are not for entertainment purposes, but they are for serving the body of Christ. Do all members have the same office? No, do all have the gift of teaching or preaching? No. Each members of the body of Christ has a function and a purpose. We often hear our functions and purposes referred to as gifts.
Every now and them, I think many believers get so caught up on the or gifts, they think their gift is far superior than anyone. The believer that prophesies will need to partake of the gift of healing or benefit from someones giving. In Romans the 12th chapter, Paul urges the saints at Rome (Romans 1:7) to present them selves as a living and holy sacrifice (Romans 12:1) Read more on Wait on it….

We often limit ourselves with erroneous thinking; for instance it is popular to think as well as believe that ministry exists within the four walls of the church and consists of:
- Singing in the choir.
- Ushering
- Play an instrument.
- Service in an official capacity or what ever you do within the four walls of the church.

While growing up in the City of Philadelphia, enjoying the morning church service was something to really think about for days to come. The move of the spirit, people being saved, healed, encouraged and set free. No matter how bad your week was, fellowship with Gods people was a real encouragement and your spirit was lifted by the time worship was over. There was such a spirit of reverence and respect for the place in which the saints gathered together for worship.
More than 30 years ago, we didn’t have the ability to stream video from cell phones (we had pay phones) we could not text, tweet or communicate instantly during the service, but we could pass notes and whisper or ask the usher to pass the note or meet in the back of the church to pass on a message quietly.

As the Christmas day celebration comes to a close and families settle in for the evening, travelers are wondering if the roads will be safe to travel because of the predictions and forecast of snow. The news weather service reported the strong possibility of a white Christmas and indeed it was a white Christmas. News stations also reported flight cancellations, but the roads did appear to be safe for traveling. As the evening progressed, alerts began to scroll across the bottom of the t.v screen and the alerts named churches that canceled there services for Sunday. I wonder what many devout and religious folk will do on the Sunday after Christmas; church is canceled. Our culture certainly has a way with words; “services canceled”. The very notion of coming together to worship God is canceled. Read more on When church Services are canceled…
