Philippians 2:3-5
What can we accomplish when we work together? Think of it as a team. There is so much that goes on in sports, much more than just guys throwing a ball, catching a ball, kicking a ball or hitting a ball. All of the team has to be in unison in order to accomplish the goal, which is to win!
Unity allows different individuals and personalities to mesh and mix in order to succeed as a group. They still have their same personalities. They are still the same people, but when they combine together, they can accomplish so much more than they could individually.
God wants the church to work the same way. He chose all of us and put us together in one place called the church, so that we could accomplish his will. Individually each of us can only do so much, and we are going to get tired. If we work in unison and as a team, we can accomplish God’s will on earth. Let’s serve the church together. Let’s build one another up and let’s bring many of God’s children back to the fold.
