Are you important?

Ephesians 4:4-6 illustrates the unity of God's people with the very familiar seven "ones." Paul had just encouraged them to be unified in vss. 1-3. Unity is necessary because in vs. 16, it is written, "From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love."

The Lord's church has one purpose and mission, but it is composed of many different people. A lot of people believe they are not useful, so they quit. Our one goal is to glorify God, and all parts are necessary for the glorification of God (1 Corinthians 12:12-25). You are important, so don't give up in serving God, even though you may feel insignificant. The Lord and His church need whatever talents you possess!
