Celebrate Your Differences – your Lion Bites word for today
Celebrate your differences as you love one another. Your brothers and sisters in Christ are different from you and you are different from them. We are all made by the Creator who loves diversity and who made every single person who ever is and ever was, unique and different.
Of course, in most things those who follow Christ are the ‘same’. We are all born again and filled with the same Holy Spirit. We experience similar trials, battle the same fears and resist common temptations; we enjoy comparable blessings and expectations too.
However, you are so very special in so many ways, and Father God has made you this way, so that you may complement one another as the Body on earth, and in His purposes. Therefore, as you work together, you yourself will be liberated into your own unique giftings. And corporately you will make an impact on the world.
1 Corinthians 12:4-7
There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.
