NOT just “another brick in the wall”

 


1 Peter 2:5 ESV

you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

“In the work of Christian ministry truly we enter into each others’ labours.”- Ralf Gower

I personally am grateful for the testimonies of the Lord (Psalm 119:24) and the great cloud of witnesses (Hebrews 12:1) that has been provided us by the Lord that has been summed up in Hebrews 11 and that has continued to grow down throughout the lines of church history till the current great men and women of God who are part of The Lord’s church today!!!

2 Corinthians 3:2-3 ESV

You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on our hearts, to be known and read by all. And you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

I can’t help but consider my own labours? Where’s (or whom are) my letter from Christ delivered by me, written with the Spirit of the living God on tablets of human hearts? If not a letter, do I have a postcard or at least a brief text message?
