The Body of Christ, meaning you and me if you have given your life to the Lord, is a team. We need to learn to be good team players. I was not a team player for a long time in my life even after I got saved. I pretended to be a team player but I was not. I say this because I always wanted to be recognized. I wanted to be seen and given credit by men for all the “wonderful” ideas I have put forth. If someone else took credit for MY idea I felt very angry inside. The truth however is that, whatever we do, the Lord knows it. We do not have to be in the lime light and gain recognition for what we do. The Lord recognizes it.
In a team if we want to be in the lime light we are going to destroy the team because we won’t pass the ball to others. We won’t be able to be happy for others when they progress. If one of us is moving forward and coming up with good ideas let us be happy. Let us recognize that the Lord can use anyone regardless of what we think of them. Let us be careful that we do not miss God because we are not team players.
BE A TEAM PLAYER. The people in the team who irritate you are actually part of the team, love them. Its good for you.
