Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.
(Ephesians 4:15-16 ESV)
It's that time of year when anything can ache... especially the joints. But God's people have different kinds of joints - ones that are strong and healthy, yet mature. Those joints are words and actions of love toward one another. Those things bind us together, not bind us up. Such words and actions are deliberate, yet sincere; focused, yet spontaneous; humble, yet confident. Let's do this!
