YOU are important. Let me say that again: YOU are important. YOU are part of the body of believers, and without YOU, a function would go unfulfilled. Without YOU, the body would be incomplete. Being part of the body is such a privilege. Think of it—joining with other believers in a family with God at the Head! Contributing to the body is also a privilege. Some people get the idea that their contribution is less important than another’s. Not a good way to think! We all know the name Billy Graham, but do we know the name of the person who told Billy Graham about Jesus? Nope. But that doesn’t make him insignificant. He played a very important role in the Kingdom of God. YOU are important to God’s Kingdom, too. Do what He called you to do, whatever that may be. God rewards His faithful servants.
