For even the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve...
Mark 10:45
WE ARE CREATED & GIFTED FOR PURPOSE
God has a specific purpose, or calling, for each one of us.
The apostle Paul was able to say of himself that he was "called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God" (1 Cor. 1:1). As we mature in our relationship with Jesus, we too can come to a place where we say we are "called to be a teacher - pastor - missionary - evangelist," or simply "bond-servant of Jesus Christ" (Rom. 1:1; Jude 1:1), serving Jesus faithfully with joy in the opportunities He gives us.
Many members - One body. Many individuals make up the Body of Christ. Just like the human body functions together as a unit, there are parts that serve unique purposes, as we are all individually designed to play our part in the Body of Christ. The Holy Spirit gives "gifts" to each one of us individually, so we may contribute uniquely to the overall health of the church. "Thus, also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. But someone will say, 'You have faith, and I have works.' Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith BY my works." (James 2:17-18)
